    Production in 3-4 years... That pretty much puts it in electric motors and batteries territory with faux engine noise through the speakers....

    Cripe.... Wut am I saying.... Engine noise??? Nope.... The noise through the speakers will sound like the bad condenser on my 60's car playing through my Audiovox radio replacement hanging crooked from under the dash complete with loose dangling wires picking up all the static, in sync with the cylinders firing....

    I actually had this exact same model.... Converted AM to FM...:eek:

    Ahhhh yes.... The 60's.... We've come so far....:D

    The future is "Hmmmmmmmmm"....

    They need to make it with the 2.0 in JCW tune. The new MINI flagship car.

    The speedster-type windshield is where a lot of its mojo comes from... and I can't see that making it to a production car. Sadly.

    If it runs the same electrics as the i3, look for a $50K price tag too......

    See less MINI is more, but less will also cost a ALOT more. :rolleyes:
