I agree about the profile with the diminishing side glass. It gives a less box look without taking too far. I also agree about all the chrome, but we always black that out anyway, so no problem.

Jim

 

Exactly!

 

.....and your point is? Lol

 

I love the new mechanicals, but I'm not too thrilled with the styling details – especially the lumpy front end, the Liberace chrome package and the taillights so large they look Photoshopped on. :frown2:

Fortunately, my next MINI will be the 2015 300-hp JCW hardtop, so there's plenty of time for a mid-cycle refresh on the body. :lol:

 

Stop looking a pictures of the new MINI now. Apparently it causes dementia. A KIA?!? :eek6:

 

The headlights and taillights are not proportional to the rest of the body.

Mechanicals sound promising.

Not sure how I feel overall about the car. Liking my R56 more and more.

 

Thanks MINI...

I couldn't sleep last night because, I kept seeing that front end picture coming at me with the grille painted red, and the big stupid eyelashes!

This is what modifying a MINI is coming down to...

 

I had a boat named that.

 

I think the lights are so big to make the bigger car look smaller.
I could live with the back but that front bumper has to go.

The good news is MINI has a new exterior designer. Maybe it will get a face lift by the time the convertible comes out.

 

Record sales will be expected when that comes out.....by Lifan.

 

Words not needed.....

 

Oh my........

 

Oh dear God that thing is even uglier in all BLACK.:frown2::incazzato::mad2::frown2:

The end is near. :lol:

 

Nope, this is swirling in the toilet bowl.... The new Clubman, what were the folks at Mini thinking?

 

Are those White Walls?

 

"Let's design a car to reach a group of buyers we're not currently reaching." What's so hard to understand about that? :confused5:

It's not a car I want - I don't even like the fact that JCW parts are available for anything but the hardtop - but BMW is in business to make money and is going after a segment that wants/needs a larger car.

 

Yeah but that's because of the "Polar Vortex" and "Winter" according to MINI/ MF. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

Thankfully MINI / MF could fall back on a reason for it.... Soooo how did the Allwheel sell in this same perion?

 

The AllWheel CountryFail is just an BMW X3, too big and not MINI.

The Paceman looks ok and would be FUN lowered with AllWheel. :devil:
