Aright, I saw three Mini's today on the way home, all in the same area of Downtown Fullerton. One was a Blue MCS Checkmate, the other was a BRG MC w/ Woody Side Decal (I think.) and the last a PW MC.

I waved three times...

And must of looked like a fool cause I got no responce.

Why people?! WHY?!

I haven't seen you and I work near there in Placentia. I pass by MINIs every day and none wave. I've pulled right alongside them at stop lights and they look the other way. Seems this part of town just isn't MINI friendly

If I'm assuming that you made some 'eye' contact, and they still didn't wave...
I'm up in that area (Brea) every other Thursday evening.

I posted a picture of my MCS on post #1824 of this thread, it's ABM. I'm hard to miss...

Don't worry about waving like a little girl.. you should hear me scream! Oh man, that's embarrasing.

Saw a mess of MINIs on the way home yesterday.

A PW/B MCS, a very distinctive red/black MCS with black stripes and yellow accents, decals, dual exhaust, and personalized plates, and an 07 Cooper blue/blue.


Got waves and driving time with the red/black MCS. Nice car.

Last night around 10pm, spotted a Blue MC w/ Personalized license plate.. started with RN ____. He got on the 57-S either on Chapman or Orangethorpe and then continued South while I got on the 91W. He wasn't very playful at all, saw me and kept on going like nothing.

On the 5-Freeway heading north somewhere between El-Toro and the 133, spotted a lovely red/white Cooper with white wheels.

Lovely looking car !

Also spotted a Yellow MCS around the same area - plate was something like On Fyre ?

And I NEVER see any Minis... oh, and I wave...

Have you seen me?






The Carbon Bonnet and the M7 Grills make me stick out a little... so if you've seen me, how bout a wave? Tha'd make my day. Thanks guys...
I think i have seen you a couple months ago . It was on the 5north freeway around burbank. I belive you had a helmet on the passanger side headrest. I was in a dark silver mini and it seemed like we went a lil crazy until i exited. Car looks good btw

YES!!!



My infamous helmet of doom! If I leave it on the seats or in the back it rolls around like crazy, so I've found that before and after events, it's easier just for me to prop it on the headrest.

BWA HA HA HA!!! I've been spotted!

(Edit: Man, I'm totally buying you a pizza! If you need any Megan Racing parts, lemme know.)

Yah, that's the one. They're always backed into that same spot... facing the South. I'm gonna do some recon.

This afternoon I waved to a pair of ladies driving a PW/B MC, at the intersection of nohl ranch and santa ana canyon. They both were looking in my direction as I passed, I think it's a plus that they acknowleged that there was another mini on the road, didn't see a wave though.

Well that, and they have the aftermarket foglights. I dunno, there's just a sense of pride with that MINI so I'm thinkin that person either is already here on NAM, or certainly needs to be. Maybe I'll go over there with some free stuff for a MCS. That'll start them Modding... maybe like a MINI T-Shirt.
