    I am very cool with that and the color is fantastic. Just wanted to start this off with a positive response. :Thumbsup:

    Now the bitching can start...Dave, your on. :D

    Honestly, if my wife stumbled onto that web page, she would recognize it as a MINI and move on, not noticing that anything is different.

    I do agree with ya there Mark. The white around the edge does make them look like Eyes, but think how great the add on eye lashes will look now. :lol:

    It's a shame that they have to design a car for morons who cant look before they cross the street. :mad2:
    I went and looked at all the pictures. I will reserve final judgment till I see it up close. But its not the long lens making it look bad. I'm sorry I really would like it to be a good looking car but its not.
    Saying its the lens or its not in the right light is like saying your ugly girlfriend is a super model, she's just not in the right light. To bad you can't count on that light. :eek6:

    Just for the recored I like The coupe, roadster and the convertible.

    I know not every MINI can look as good as the R53. Its hard to improve on perfection. :biggrin5::biggrin5::biggrin5:


    Sorry I couldn't wait on Dave.O

    Thanks for your review Dave O. It was negative as always, so I figure if you don't like it, then MINI must be headed in the right direction. I like it even better now. :Thumbsup:

    Let's be careful out there, boys. You can do whatever you want in the privacy of your own garage, but you don't have to tell all your stories here. :eek6:

    From Conan the Grammarian and the Urban Dictionary:

    Nekkid is not simply being without clothing. It means you are gettin' nekkid for mischevious purposes. Naked is natural; nekkid is naughty.

    Nekked is from the southern lexicon, a term for sexually aroused naked-ness. Whereas being naked is simply being nude; being nekked is being nude and ready to ****. :yikes:

    I really just bought a MINI because it was fun to drive, but you guys have opened my eyes to a whole new world. :p

    I think it's more the other way around, that they are designing for inattentive and careless drivers.

    I knew all you nasayers would not let us down. :lol::lol:

    I still like it and the fact that they added more low end torque to the justa, shows they are paying attention. I think the future is looking bright myself.

    I'm with you Jim, I think MINI is in the right direction with the F56.

    Harsh but funny!

    I think the front is too chromed up & too busy, but you can't really tell what it looks like because there're no front side pics. I like the back end & the profile with diminishing side glass.

    Full disclosure: I own an R53, hate the Coupe/Roadsters. You pays yer money & makes yer choice...
