    Me thinks that the "toupee" roof is so universally disliked that they've decided to keep the cladding on the production models with the hope that no one will notice it. :ihih:

    That looks like it might be the JCW variant. Does that mean the Cooper S model will sit 10mm higher?

    Kinda like the debates on the Countryman, they sure seem to sell all they have at our dealerships. :)

    I'm sure it will grow on us or you. I'm looking at this for 2012 or the next year. Depends on what happens with the Alfa Romeo 4c. :drool

    The black with black roof looks very good.
