I dunno. I have a feeling it will sell ok. It may attract buyers who like the look and style of the mini, but need a little more space or like the peace of mind of a slightly bigger car.

It should look nice in black with some wide tires. I've seen some very nice coopers driving around lately.

I seem to be going against general opinion tonight, but I HATE this one.

Defeats the purpose. Even back int he day when Mini started offering different flavors, the original was the one that was right.

I'm kinda jury's-out too. It looks better than I expected it to, but it doesn't make me want to buy it when I already have an A4 GTI that's as big or bigger (still) and has more power. I especially don't care for how they did the dual exhaust. Just doesn't work.

But if this thing were thousands less than it will be, it'd probably rob about half of Scion's xB sales.
