Endre Barath, Jr. -- I was working in the office until 8:30PM and there was no adult beverages consumed.  Have you been to the Peterson since the renovation? It's on my always growing list of places to go in Los Angeles.  

Donna Foerster -- I'm happy to provide a laugh(or an almost lol moment).

Well you know me, Endre. I'm a museum fan:) 

Yes, I was in Peterson and Nethercutt museums  quite recently.

But this one looks like Bob Smith Mini that is in Calabasas. Are you shopping for a new car?

Endre Barath, Jr. -- you're right Inna Ivchenko is our local cultural ambassador.

Chris Ann Cleland -- art is all around us even in the unlikeliest of places.  

Inna -- the photo was taken closer to me at Mini of Monrovia.  I'm not shopping but saw the "installation" from the 210 Freeway.

Hi Michael - Nice. I'll have to suggest that to Mary the next time she can't find a parking space for her mini.

Anna Banana Kruchten -- the cropping on Facebook eliminated the cars on the lot --- I need better snipping skills.

Michael-- I had to smile at the title and I did think of that car.  I wonder if they charge more to park there.

Kathy Streib -- with the high cost of land and the scarcity of parking in some areas of Los Angeles, I could see this trend catching on if they can get the "logistics" worked out.   Imagine the possibilities for a valet company.

I can see how this would drive you up a wall Michael.

These minis are  very popular these days. My neighbors switched their both cars to Minis and they are very happy.

Noah Seidenberg - I'm pretty sure I don't want to drive up any wall -- not really fond of winding mountain roads either.  

Inna Ivchenko -- I see quite a few on the road too.

I thought so too Grant Schneider -- attention getting display for sure.

Sharon Tara -- it makes you wonder how else they could "stage" these vehicles, right?
