    Geez, did you even read the article? Here's what you get:
    While it’s unclear still what the edition will feature, we’ve confirmed it will have the following:

    • All Midnight black exterior
    • Unique Stripes
    • Playboy Sill Tread
    • Alcantara Dash Upper and Lower
    • Playboy Edition side repeaters
    • Champaign mirror caps

    Not mentioned, but also included are flesh colored airbags with nipple graphic.

    You buy a Corvette, and people say you are compensating for something.

    If you buy a MINI, you're inversely compensating for something.

    But a Playboy Edition MINI? That leaves me confused. Is the buyer compensating for something, but unable to afford a 'vette, so buys a Playboy MINI, or, to the other extreme, MASSIVELY inversely compensating, with a loud, bold, statement, saying, "Yes, I bought this undersized pimpmobile, and I CAN pull it off!!!" But,on the other hand, if you are "massively" compensating, you'd need more leg room, and a racing style (flat bottomed) steering wheel, to stuff everything in there comfortably.

    It will be an interesting demographic.

    Personally, I think it would have been much more interesting if Playboy and Rolls-Royce would have worked together to create the Playboy Goodwood Edition, but maybe I'm overthinking it.

    So if I have one of each, I must be perfectly balanced, right? :lol:

    I guess it's possible for some people to have two, but it would be a little awkward, and if there was more than one person involved, could precipitate a nasty argument over who gets what....:devil:

    Are those "air bags" a one time thing or repeat use? I see a lot of lonely guys crashing for a quick peek.
