It is sad we don't have more owners on NAM. I keep seeing this one Midnight Black 09 JCW in the Woodlands and it drives me nuts since she is my age (21) and would be lovely to meet her
I just picked up a 2006 Chili Red S and have an '09 that I use as a customer loaner. Going to clean up the '06 and perform some interior, exterior and performance mods and use it for advertising!!

Here's a 50/50 to show the actual before and after comparison:
This car is all red. I plan to paint the roof black, apply some matte black accents and a black set of 18" wheels. Power plant will get a smaller supercharger pulley, cold air intake and exhaust. Some carbon bits and wrap on the interior then a few advertising bits properly placed on the exterior.
Here is a pic of the customer loaner!!

Interior will get a few carbon bits as well.

Use it how? For a little while, I saw a car driving around here with a Google Maps ad car wrap. I'd love to do that, but can't figure out how. I think it would look great on my Mini and would be a great eyecatching advertisement. And I could use the money.
I know there are websites where you can sign up and hope some ad people contact you, but there are more people signed up than they can ever use. And they ask how many miles you drive implying they want people who drive a lot of miles. I live in the inner city. I don't drive far, but I drive in a densely populated area.

I grew up in laporte, now i live in seabrook, and drive in to UH once a week.
the mini population has exploded, in the clear lake seabrook area in the last year. I used to see maybe 1-2 minis a week, now i see about ten or more minis everyday.
I keep seeing more and more MINIs here in the Woodlands area. I really wish I could still organize more people together for a meet and greet. I had someone in a silver vert on Six Pines the other day wave at me in my PW JCW R56
i have an 07 silver MCS...I stay around the Pearland area and i have to say I'm always seeing mini's here and there. I'll be going out to next months Planet Zero meet, if anyone goes and you see a cooper with a LMAO(mini logo)VTEC euro plate stop and say hi
Man I would've been down for the sitar meet, but didn't see this until now. Keep me posted if anything else comes up soon. I'm always down for a woodlands meet if I'm free.

I'm down for a meet tonight. Anyone up for one in the woodlands?
I might be down to do a meet near somewhere where i can get coffee tonight, if we can get some people interested. Running on low sleep right now, hehe.
