That's the car! I saw it @ 4:15 coming up the hill heading towards Kalama Valley. I was driving the silver MC. With all the probs with that car, I just use it as a beater to haul junk around like air compressors, racing jacks...

hey, i was in the area around that time...i was touring the east side checking on the wrap-around from that giant winter swell that closed out the north shore. i was checking the lanai lookout for any whales at around 4 and came down kalanianaole hwy around 430 or so.

per the topic of this thread, i have been seeing the last 2 weeks or so a brand new cr/cr or b mcs with 12/03 paper plates at wahiawa medical arts parking lot. so aren't those plates expired then?

I also saw a LY/w MCS on McCully the other day. It had these black side mouldings/bumper strips. Let's just say it looked different.

Seems like a lot of people are getting out of their MINIs for other cars these days. bgrpph told me he saw a '02 CR/W MC on the Hickam "lemon" lot. Maybe the cars that are popping up in the secondary market are the '02s?

Interesting day today. On my way home from the MINI & a Movie, I was stopped at the light to make a left turn off Kalanianaole Hwy and what passes me? 3 MINIs, actually, 2 MINIs and 1 Mini all in a row, 2 DS MCS and 1 BRG Classic. Cool day!

doesn't that make you wanna p/u another mini? just not ds '02 though.

i was gonna wash my rather shiny mcs, but the sun dove below the horizon rather quickly and it's a little chilly tonight.

saw 2 mini's' on the way home. forget what colors they were, but i must say they looked rather shiny.

I'll have to think about getting another MINI. Maybe I'll get one when most of the bugs are worked out of the car, and it has 230 hp.

Got some nice prizes at MoH today! The cap is nice and the thongs fit great!

you mean in a mini cap and thongs? that would be perfect for just cruising around in my mini. ahhh, then i can really appreciate the wet okole seat covers. of course, i would spray some protectant coating on before doing so.

woah, what has this thread come to? (please film all activities for showing at the next MINI & a movie)

now back to the topic of this thread....i see so many MINIs on the road, i cant even keep track anymore. please do not forget to pass out your flyers when you see other MINIs on the road. i've already given one out -- to a ly/w cooper that i saw in the sushiland/dai-ryu/baskin robbins parking lot on king street this weekend....

*Kohu'ulaMINI: Sup, my friend. Saw you yesterday morning & this morning in between your fire station & your Mickey D's as you sat patiently while I whizzed on by. I didn't know that some congestion took place coming outta your 'hood on weekday mornings. Well, nowhere's perfect, huh? See you on Monday, dude

Saw a bunch of sweet S' in Ewa Beach on Friday. My daughter was thrilled too! It was nice meeting some new people too. Mahalo to those MINI owners for putting it together and making sure things went smoothly. Mahalo to "pc" for allowing us to take over his place. Hope to see more of you folks soon.
