Was in LA this week and I must have saw about 8 in 4 days. In the DC Metro area I see like 1 a month if I'm lucky.

Well, convertibles are just more popular in SoCal. I had a Triumph in San Diego that I almost never put the top up on.

If you happened to see a Purple Haze MCSC, that was me!! I saw a black/black MCSC parked on 6th Street this morning. I probably see a MINI Cabrio at least once a week. Keep motoring!

Don't think I saw a purple one, saw a bunch of silvers ones. Do you drive down Wilshire?

I drive Wilshire Blvd. all the time. I live a block away:-) When I motor on Rodeo Drive, I get more people looking at my MINI Cabrio rather than a Porsche 911 Cabrio. I guess it's the novelty factor.

With the recent heatwave I've FINALLY started seeing other cabrio owners with their tops down.

Maybe i should drive down wilshire more often then..
