    I love my Coupe. I can't count the number of fun interactions I have had over the last 3 years with random strangers wanting to know what it is and take a look. I always offer a tour of Rogue. It never gets old to open up the car and show the hidden cooler just inside the pass through (for non alcoholic beverages of course) and inform of the fact that it has the biggest Boot in the fleet, rotating disco ball style light show in the cockpit and illustrate the tail fin. Oh the fun! She's a keeper.

    My most enjoyable interaction with non MINI people was on the Pa. tpke.

    at the Somerset rest area when I parked next to a group of Harley riders.

    At first I thought ah f&%# I should have parked some place else. Long

    story short even the most hard core guys liked it. This one biker chick

    really like it and wanted to sit in it..ok go ahead. She then told her boy-

    friend that she wanted one, he said no f@&%#$* way. Everyone got a

    chuckle out of that!
