Red Bull MINI sighting
I saw a Red Bull Mini on the Delaware Memorial Bridge today!
Uh, that's all. Just thought I'd share. I didn't take the attached pic, I googled it for reference.

I saw one in San Francisco a few weeks back. I was driving, or else I'd have snapped a pic (or tried). Is the one in the pic above a convertible? The one I saw was.

I see it (one of them at least) every week where I live near Pittsburgh and it never gets old. Plus, they always give out samples!

I met a college student who had a summer job driving a Red Bull MINI in the Detroit area. She said there were two in this area. She had a blast driving it, mostly to college campuses to hand out samples. Sounds like a better summer job than I ever had!

I've seen the Red Bull MINI in midtown Manhattan a couple of times over the past few months. It definitely is a standout.

I saw one in the parking lot here at work a few weeks ago (I work at a university, so they were probably doing a promotion for the students).

One of the first minis I encountered after receiving mine was a red bull one, and I still see them pretty often around here. They don't seem to understand the whole waving thing. As a rep for a soft drink, you'd think they'd wave anyway....

Interesting, so far all the pics have been of hardtops. The one's i've been seeing are convertibles.

The one that used to roam around Buffalo NY is being sold now (it might have been purchased already) as a "custom mini pickup truck" without the big red bull on it.
