Saw an MCS on Speed Channel's CarCrazy

Last evening I stop by to watch Barry Mequire smiling his way through another episode and he's sitting in front of an AutoZone with some VP of something who happens to be a long time car fanatic. Anyway, behind the two is an array of cars including a Shelby Cobra, Vettes, Mustangs, multiple vintage hot rods, a few ricers pimped out to the nth degree and right over Barry's left shoulder a black MCS. This is only the latest sighting of many over the past 2 months or so...including a Unichip a commercial, a local clothing store commercial (Goody's), and several others. Has anyone else noticed a lot of MINI's in the media lately. I just bought mine, so maybe I'm a little more observant than I would be otherwise.

I noticed the MCS too, also the red Chevelle, (I have a 69 Chevelle).

No wonder Barry smiles a lot...what a job!!

I just saw an old episode of Alias and one of the main characters was driving a MINI out of the basement garage.
