See you just never know when that wave will come back. And if it doesn't, our local mini club posts it on our web -- Hey have you seen this Mini -- A non waver!!! -- be warned in Phoenix. You'll end up on the board!

I got a very enthusiastic wave today while stopped in traffic. It made my day. I'm going to keep waving, even though few wave back.

I got a big wave the other day from a classic mini (BRG/W) as we crossed in front of each other in an intersection. What a beautiful car.

I live in Irvine, and i've seen a few MINI's around and now i get used to waving to each of them! I think we're getting used to seeing each other. I believe that part of the MINI spirit is being friendly with other drivers. I think everyone i've waved at has waved back at me! i know all my friends are jealous because when you buy a MINI you're buying into a family of friendly people.

edit: I acutally took a picture of the 7 MINI's that were at my high school, and even though none of us knew each other we instantly bonded! Can somebody pls PM me and teach me how to upload pictures? i keep getting an error message!
