I have had my MINI 6 days now.LOVE HER!! Every time we are out driving we are always getting waves, thumbs ups, stares, etc. I am not complaining, but it's funny. Sometimes I have forgotten that I was driving the MINI and see someone staring at me and wonder why.

 

Hey Minigirl,
Yes, on all aspects of your question regarding the parade. We just brought home our Cooper on Saturday (After an exhausting 6 hours at the dealership!) Every head turns that is not glued to the road or to happy meal. We had a 45 miles ride to our hometown and nearly everyone pointed and looked. Yesterday, we had folks living near us, stopping in front of the house. Dog walkers, you name it. One man stopped to ask if he could look inside, and then lamented how awful it was going to be living with his son, after the son gotta look at our Mini. It's amazaing!

 

I've had my Mini almost 2 months and she still gets the same attention as when I first got her. There is a restaurant/bar I frequent because a good friend of mine works there and I always park right out front. It's rediculous how many people stop on the sidewalk and just stare at it every single time she is parked out there...people stop and talk about my Mini and point and walk around and look in the windows....actually sometimes it makes me a little nervous...NO FINGERPRINTS PLEASE!!!

 

The first time we took one for a test drive people stared, smiled and waved.......it was great !!!

I cant wait till I get mine..........patiently waiting, production date 9/27
