    Good review. I still haven't got to drive one. The day I went they still had not prepped them. The sales manager even got on to the salesman that showed them to me. He told him that they can't be sold so he shoulders have taken me to the back to see them.
    Go figure.

    No, I've dropped out of discussions about the F56. People get hot on this topic and my comments get misinterpreted from my style of writing.

    I think it is great that people are getting out and looking at it in person. It won't be for everyone, but that has always been the case with all of the MINI lineup (including the R50 and R53).

    You'll see the new goodies from the F56 being incorporated in the other models as they are updated - first one is the Countryman this summer.

    the countryman isnt due for an update until 2015-2016...i have a 2014 Paceman and there wasnt an update to anything...the email i got from MINI stated that the things they did on the 2014 Cooper S prevent any sort of compatability with previous R platform generations...

    so no there will no updates to the countryman until the UKL platform the Countryman/Paceman/X1/X2(upcoming) is refreshed in a few years

    One more time, for anyone not blinded by rage: The updated Countryman, with a light exterior facelift and a more substantial interior facelift, will be unveiled at the New York Auto Show later this month. It will be available Julyish.
