Here’s a really nice vid of the MINI press conference at NAIAS, uploaded by avingusa of AVINGTV. Hear BMW AG guy Stefan Krause talk about sales, model line up, etc. There is full text for this speech in an earlier Miniology post HEY IS THAT DJ DAV’S ELECTRO TRACK FOR HIS INTRO? how cool is that.. our music at NAIAS Detroit! Anyway, nice little chat, it’s just like being there LOL..

Some videos we saw on YouTube, since we don’t live anywhere near Detroit and didn’t go to yet another auto show to see the same cars we did in LA and SF, here’s one worth looking at. It was done by Kelley Blue Book (uploaded by blearvanderyacht) and has MINI’s chief designer Gert Hildebrand talking you through the features of the MINI Clubman. Nice insights..

My favourite part is where he says you can fold down the back seats to put your dog or mother-in-law in the back! LOL!

Tshirts! Going fast!

We haven’t printed up new shirts for 2008 yet, but this is what we have left for the original Miniology design:

Black, shortsleeve, Gildan T-Shirts:

Women’s M (2)
Men’s M (2)
Men’s L (1)
Men’s XL (2)

My cost to produce the shirts are $9 each. I can give you shirts on one of the runs, or can mail them to you, generally around $3-$4 unless you want them FAST hehe..

I am happy to take cash (if you see me at a MOASF or REME run, I frequent these two clubs the most, though have been known to appear at NorCal MINI or Maverick runs!) or.. you can use PayPal (I give out a special email address for this, privately) Just use the comment link on the bottom of this post to let us know you need your Miniology swag!

Cheers!
