    I am sure we will see eyelashes at the Dragon and maybe someone change the color of the Halos to be an Eye shadow color.

    Maybe even add lipstick around HUGE grill area and a BOZO nose.

    Does anyone else think that those lower vents look like buck teeth?

    Ya know, the more I look at that new MINI model...
    The more I can't stand it. :frown2:

    I guess they're really trying to capture the retro look with the redesign of the grille, but the front is just far too busy for my liking.

    Put on the Cooper lower front bumper and remove that oversized and mis-placed S on the front grill.

    I styled my old R53 using the interview tactic of removing the first thing to be noticed. Stand in front of a full-length mirror, close your eyes, then take one quick 'peep' at yourself in the mirror (1/4 second), then close your eyes again. Whatever you first noticed in your 'peep' needs to be removed/restyled. Repeat until a even, confident look is achieved. I painted arches, painted wheels, covered up yellow lights and red highlights to make, IMHO, an elegant car.

    The new MINI makes me want to get one and style it again... just to see what the car really can be. It's just going to be a lot more work than with my R53. I don't even know if I have the imagination or skill to fix those rear tail lights!

    That car needs an "I heart abortion" sticker on the back bumper because of just how much of an abortion it is. :D:p

    Nope, it needs a sprintex, something that will take care of it once and for all.

    Obviously BMW/MINI went this alone without input from a "focus group" for the "S" bumper... It's almost like they finished the Justa bumper and did just fine by the way.... Then they wanted to step it up a notch.... But added weird design queues.... I get the shape of the large grill going back to the Clasic.... How it made it past final approval..... Crazy.... Someone needs to be smacked upside their head....

    And resorting to the abundance of stickers harks back to the days of the Mustang II..... I don't recall another manufacturer today that's resorting to these tactics to the degree that MINI is.... Tacky Tacky Tacky....

    Way too many scarfs and skinny jeans being worn by the guys in the design department....

    But why the carp lips????

    Much disappoint......

    Hey at least the accessory vendors will be happy as they will be able to invent a new accessory - the non-see-through summer bra to cover up front of the F56.

    Anyone stealing this idea must agree to give me a 10% royalty payment.....
