My Ideal MINI day

Happened Today!!

I went to school like always, and right after i went and brough my MCS to a handwash five blocks away on 31st and 20th av, if im not mistaken.
I went back to school for track and left to go pick up Pantera at about four fifteen.

Besides the huge grin on my face because of how clean she was, (its a place called Beverly Hills Auto Spa, and its all hand, they make all the high end cars that go there look new) I walked to my car right next to the entry way and a black porsche carrera convertible was coming out and he stopped and got out and commented on how nice my car looked, and i replied the same that his porsche was nice. He suggested we trade, but i had to decline

On my way back to school again to get all of my things, I was about to pull into the student lot, and a silver cooper was coming towards me, i flashed my brights and he gave me the peace sign, and parked ten car lengths down from the entrance to the parking lot (he had a peace symbol on his back bumper (who are you))

I headed home as usual and as i was at a stopped light at a five point intersection near ditmars avenue a white BMW 3series was turning into the lane going the opposite direction of me, and I got my first WHISTLE!!
I was so suprised he didnt wave or anything being that both his hands were on his wheel making a relatively quick turn but he whistled, and grinned!!!

I got home and spent twenty minutes looking at Pantera in the driveway (she hasnt been this clean in a while so i was appreciating it).
To top it all off, i ordered brake rotors, lines, and pads from Moss MINI as well as the Borla Sport exhaust!

It was an absolutely perfect day in terms of my MINI
and i now still have hope that the wave is in fact still alive and well
