    I guess I better start saving up for one of these now.
    This looks like a true street fighter.

    The looks haven't sold me yet. However if the performance is there and the driving experience is better than the tin top, it may very well be something to think about.

    If you look closely at the pictures, there appears to be a red roof under the graphics, too. Kinda like my car. :wink:

    honestly, if they got rid of those ridiculous spirals, I'd like it. But I find it hard to see the lines with all that silly crap. You however also have red pinstripes and red brakes to accentuate your red under roofing (see I DO pay attention to details :wink:), it ties it all together with the mirrors :biggrin5:

    Not sure what the point of this car is. An even less practical MINI? I mean, I use the hell out of my hatchback and can actually do the shopping in it. I've had stacks of mulch and top soil in it as well. I'm not sure I'd want to be able to fit even less stuff in any car I own.

    Its a niche player. Designed to be a 3rd car for an upwardly mobile family as a fun toy. Sales volumes are not at all expected to reach Hard Top levels.
