Hi Lauren, I wave at you often! (sometimes its a flash of the lights or the traditional thumbs up, but most often a wave) I'm in the CR/W MC I live in Torrance and frequent the crossroads center (Starbucks) often.

:smile: Hi Grant! How cool! I think you were the first person I actually waved at! I was so thrilled about it when I came home.
I've only had my car since Wednesday night. I haven't seen that many in our area yet, have you? Next time I see you, I'll wave for sure!

Hey, I live in Carson... i usually see a few every other day... usually within 5 minutes of each other...
we all should just meet up at crossroads one time for some in-n-out, but i guess that's for another thread

I was at the Best Buy in Torrance tonight... and as I was leaving, my friend brought my attention to a DS/B MCS... sitting next to a silver Ferrari
(even more reason to park and take a look)
Apparently they're from the same tuning company. The name is sketchy but I think it was "Precision Tuning" or something similar
see ya

It's about the 4th or 5th time. Yesterday morning, on my way to work I saw BRG/W MC southbound (same as i) on 605, just south of 91 Freeway. It's the same female driver (with the same sunglasses) each time.

>>I can't quite figure out why no one waves or winks their lights back!
It's not you! It's the *other* orange county MINI owners. Remember, before they can wave, they are going to have to put the cell phone down

Saw 3 this past week, one drove right me, as I was pulling out of the driveway (front first)...it was a yellow Cooper S, with LB Mini plates. I waved and everything, but she didn't look directly at me; she just smiled. I must've looked like an idiot! Anyhow, I also a LY Cooper at Wilson Park this morning. :smile: I was walking with my mom, and we were talking about the LB Rally, and she got so excited all of a sudden and said, "Hey there's one just like yours!!!"
She got all excited! The last one was a CR/w that I saw as I as at the Happy Hour bar at Claim Jumpers... we were looking outside, and I finally saw one... maybe it was MOG4D?

Hey, I was on Milliken earlier today. I did pass through Ontario on my way to check up on my mom. She's in San Berdoo so turns out they're not near the fires. Sure was eerie-looking driving around with all that ash flying everywhere.
Oh, I drive an Indi Blue/B MC. Can't miss the big "Raider Nation" decal on the rear window.

LC, I got it at the Raider Image in the Lakewood Mall. For Raiders' fans, this store has all kinds of stuff you can put on your car.
