    There's a Triumph car club in Tallahassee Florida called "The Temple of Triumph" and I always really dug that name for the idea behind it, Cult of MINI has that same ring to it.

    :cornut: When I click on this address that's not what comes up. MINI2 and a slew of others come up but none of them have this address. What's the deal Nathan?

    I got a big return wave from a guy driving an orange MCS convertible in Richmond BC today. I get so few return waves, I was surprised.

    Some woman driving a JCW gave me a gigantic wave when I got out of my car today to buy the polish for a scuff. Is this REALLY a thing? Ever since I bought my Cooper, I seriously noticed tons of them waving at me. Must always be a thing with buying cars where once you own one, you notice the ones that look like yours.

    Feels awkward, man. Feels awkward.

    Yeah people wave at me all the time sometimes they get a wave sometimes they don't.

    Somebody once said "hey we have the same car so I was waving at you"

    I said: "No I have a 2005 S and you have a new Mini and its very dirty":devil::lol:

    I think I've gotten maybe 2 waves since April. And one was from a dude pedaling a bicycle...not sure if that counts. :D

    Usually when I drive past other Minis, they don't even make eye contact...

    I don't wave, that's a Jeep thing that MINI tried to copy.

    Depends in how grumpy I am. I might think of it after I've passed you. Check your mirror...

    I won't see you because I am paying attention to the road.

    I would advise others do the same and STAY ON YOUR SIDE.:ihih:

    Seattle has a pretty active MINI scene happening. PSMINI is an active group.

    I haven't seen a wave back in quite some time.
