I've seen two different all blacks. One was in Cerritos, the other in Santa Fe Springs.
Where do you fly?

Nardo that 2nd one could have been mine!! I wasn't in it though, haven't been since Monday when I dropped it off at LB Mini. I just got a call and they said it was ready to go. They say they gave it a good long test drive, so you never know, it might have been mine.


On my way out the door to pick up a stumble free car. I hope.

I saw a green/white top mini on the 10 freeway at about 7:30 in the morning. I also saw a dark silver/white MCS over at the brea mall last weekend.

If anyone sees me around the OC or LA I'm in a PS/Black top mini cooper with tinted windows

today on Hwy. 74 (Ortega Hwy) 1 EB/W MCS going westbound and 1 CR/B MC I think I followed into Lake Elsinore. Both were at about 5:00PM. I waved but I'm sure it was ignored since I'm driving a Crevier loaner 330.

Hey HandsomRob, the BRG/W mini you saw did it have tinted windows or any stickers on the windows?

Driving in the Torrance Crossroads, I came across a CR/w, and whoever it was, totally smiled and waved and me! I did the same thing obviously, I think the lady was asian or something.. and then, there's always this yellow mini that I wave at when it drives down Pennsylvania, but she never waves back. That's it so far... Anyone here?

Forgot to mention this one.

Right when I was pulling out of our apartments on my to to Angeles Crest on Sunday, I saw an Indi Blue/W (bonnet stripes) speedin' down Studebaker Road here in Norwalk. Would've turned to go after it but didn't want to be late for SCMM meet.

Saw 3 today, all were some derivation of Silver.
First one, a Dark Silver/B MC, was at the car wash on Firestone Blvd. in Norwalk, while I was washing my IB/B MC.

Second one was just a block away, I was on Firestone when a Pure Silver MC was on Orr & Day.

Third, another DS/B MCS, parked on Silverado Canyon Road down in South OC. The owner told me there are 3 more owners living up the road.

Saw a BRG/W MC this afternoon.
We were both eastbound on the 60, passing through Ontario.
Three people inside, 2 guys up front and a blonde in the back seat.
Left it behind when I had to take northbound I-15.

Whipped out the camphone and snapped this shot.
