Huntsville, AL, MINI sighting...

[mDeb]

Greg and I were driving near Huntsville, AL (Madison, actually), deep in thought when we here a 'beep-beep.' There was another (Silver) MCS beside us! We waved...It was silver with the rear (I guess the front, too, didn't see it well) grille painted white. Looked sharp! :)

Minis are pretty rare here, since the closest dealership is over 100 Miles away.

Wish I had spotted them earlier, so I could have waved harder!

That's cool. I have three dealers withing 25 miles here, so I see more than my fair share. :)

I may be taking the MINI on the road...from AL to MI with stops in OH. It will be interesting to see how many MINIs I see on the way.

It is either take that car or steal my husband's 540i 6sp.

I drove my Cooper from NJ to CA and didn't see another one the whole way!

[mDeb]

WOW!! None? Last summer I saw at least one MINI in OH (doing the same trip I will be in 2 weeks).

hey... i live in huntsville, and i'm very interested in getting a MCS. i have seen a few in huntsville - including a silver one like you describe. where did you get yours? what are you doing about repairs (atlanta or nashville)?

sorry for all the questions, but i'd really appreciate any input/help.

thanks a ton.

Edit: actually, mDeb, i think that we've already emailed about this. my bad. i just looked at your profile, and i think that you are the person who was referred to me by someone on Arstechnica. well, i'm still looking - trying to figure out if i can afford it.

by the way... thanks for all the help with those emails you sent.
