i was 4 months out from being a HS MINI owner...but im still at a HS age...can i get in

 

You have nothing to apologize for in starting your new club. Would you like me to change the thread title to "High School MINI Owners Club (HSMOC)?" I would be happy to do that, to remove any negative stigma by the apology in the title... *hint hint*

 

Sounds like they need to find a better high school.

 

There are a lot of high schoolers in my area that drive them. Although, this is the area where mom/pop buy the kids anything.

I get mad/envious every time i see one.

 

SO is where I live. My friend just got a new STI, and let me tell you, Im a little envyous of the whole "Free car" thing.

Oh btw, it basically gave me whiplash. Those cars haul. And he let me drive it, while I was driving he asked if it handles better than a MINI, and I was proud to say, NO, it handles good though.

 

Dang it, I'm 19 and just missed it...I feel left out. Oh well.

BTW, old jealous people, go away.:impatient

 

What's old...over 19? Just kidding....carry on.

 

no no no...im talking about the people whining about parents buying their kids cars...not the place for that

technically i'm too old to be posting here anyway.

 

Same here, thank god.

 

Thanks for clarifying that.

 

you a college bum too?

 

haha yup

 

See? That's awesome. You've already done more living than a lot of people do in their whole lifetime. Don't even feel bad because your Dad bought you a car. Have fun while you can, and don't ever feel you have to justify your good fortune. As long as you appreciate it, and it sure seems as though you do.

I know, I know, I'm crashing your thread. But I just wanted to say it sure seems like you guys/gals REALLY have your heads on straight. A lot straighter than mine was when I was in HS! And this is the beauty of the MINI - people of ALL ages enjoy this car. Whether you're in High School, retired, or using the MINI as the family car (like I am!).

 

so is there a logo?

 

Wanna make one?

 

I wish I had a cooper in High School.

I'm in college - anyone else wanna start a college mini club?

I noticed some just-over HS age ppl and thought they might be interested

 

Senior in high school. Just a GP Owner. :D

 

can R56's join?
Any one in the South Florida area?

 

im 17 own a mini but its my 4th car right now as its stands just black green leather limo tinted windows putting wheels on it lowering short shift and clutch its a 03 cooper and i have payed for all 4 of my cars so dont flame parents dont buy me whatever i want

 

ha yea i cant do photoshop
but anybody have ideas cause my sisters a designer

 

im 16 and in high school but just totaled my 06 mini cooper so i cant join

 

lol i am jealous, while i worked through HS, i could only afford a 1987 honda accord coupe. it was really light though. saved up and traded into 04 cooper with only the sport package my senior year. which i work on in the summers between college years, during college it just sits in my dad's garage being lonely (college has good buses around and it means i save on gas money for more mods)

 

I am now 53, but my first car was a really whipped 850 Mini that cost 200 dollars.....in 1970 when I was a senior in high school

PS My mother bought it for me :-)

 

I totally agree... the girls ALWAYS ride with me though. haha

And MINI's are manly cars... we don't have to compensate with size or extra cylinders to make up for anything.

 

Sure, I know of a couple of college kids on here, there is another MINI in the Clemson sports car club with me
