    Those new motors in an R50/R53 would be killer. The N20 is a great motor...enjoying the one in our F30.

    Maybe it's the color.....Nothing looks good in yellow except bananas and Bikinis.

    It is photoshopped. That image is a rendering that is in part based on recent spy shots.

    Further than R53? Then it wouldn't be a "new" MINI....

    Nope, just far enough back in the R53 lineage to get away from that JCW style front bumper. Put that picture together with the stock R53 bumper versus the R56, and it's an even more dramatic picture.

    And that is from someone who has the GP bumper, which I dislike even more (Yes, I compromised for convienence/track).

    If the f56 does not have a dipstick, how is the oil level determined? I searched M/A but could not find an answer to either questions above. :confused5:

    Sorry no one really can answer this question yet because the BMW / MINI evil empire has not told anyone yet.

    But Motoring File thinks the car is just Fantastic. :lol:
