I was stuck in traffic on Edens behind a jacknifed semi-truck this morning for an hour and a half or so..
MINISTI2005 saw me while he was heading southbound, and gave me a call to say howdee (and to let me know what was happening ahead, and warn me I was going to be there a while).
Fun to be spotted

yeah.. I saw that also on WGN 9 news last night. they were one of the many cars stranded on LSD. Hopefully they got their MINI back ok.

Hey Eric. actually.. its the stock muffler (although I might be needing a new one since the outer shell is starting to rust). It might be the DDM/Works intake doing most of the noise you heard. From what I've been told, it sounds pretty cool
btw...good to see you. and $55 to fill-up yesterday. yikes!!

Cool. I havent been out there since the new building was opened. I hear its a really nice place. I wonder what's going to happen to the car collection Bill Jacobs had...
Northside!!! this is Chicago you know... Capone.. voting early and often.. besides, with 3 dealerships in the area and a 4th opening in Chicago-proper, its nice to know where everyone is coming from.

Spotted my first Countryman in the wild!!!!
Yesterday around 6pm right in front Import Service Center in Glenview (Lehigh/Chestnut). I passed it (red Countryman S) as she was waiting for the light. I looked in the mirror and noticed the look on her face when she recognized I was in a MINI too. As she approached me (she had a green left-turn light) I stuck my hand out to wave. She honked and waved back. nice!

Are you "LNzBug" over on "the Org" (or was it "the list" or Vortex I see you posting?)?! I'm JimmyD from there. The wife and I have had 3 NBs and 4 days ago, we picked up our first Mini! A 2010 Mayfair

Hi Jimmy! Yes, it's me I'm not on there much anymore :( Do you still have an NB? Post a pic of your MINI and wave if you see me drive by!

A shame I wasn't out and about with the "S" loaner Jacobs gave me for 3 days. I have to admit, for a small family or you're in the retired set, this is the perfect vehicle.
OT, sadly no MINI spotting on 294 or 88 today other than my own.
