Hyper Blue owners in Memphis or nearby?

Just wondering if there are any Hyper Blue owners online that live in or near Memphis. I'm trying to decide if that's the right color for me, but want to see it in person (have requested and received lots of great pictures here).

I'll even buy lunch if you can spare the time to show me your car!

Thanks!

Thanks Cube. I think there's one closer by that I'm going to check out, but perhaps I'll get up to StL when I get mine!

It is the way to go!!! I like the CR/W combo but I LOVE my HB/W!!!! I am the second owner of my car and I think that it is the best color. I say also get the dash in the HB. It looks so good and I think that it doesn't need the chrome line interior.

Hi Ray,

Thanks for the offer. I actually was able to see one today. They are sweet. Your car looks great, especially with the stripes.

My problem now... I have and MC on order, but test drove an S today and WOW... I can't believe the difference. So much power. Now not sure if I should try to find an S. I can't bear to reoder and wait another 6-8 weeks. Decisions, decisions.

Roadshow doesn't have a HB on the lot. They had a convertible about a week ago, but it was sold.

Another 6-8 weeks may be a long time, but it would be worse to regret your decision. Think about it.

Once you get your car, look up the Mid-South MINIacs. We aren't the most active group out there, but we do know how to have a good time! http://www.midsouthminiacs.org/

Hi vargasgal - still thinking about what to do, but agree with your comments.
