Damn, however impractical that windshield is (can you say helmet and goggles?) it's pretty darn adorable.

I can't wait to see all the mini variations that will come out.... having had the opportunity to sit and fondle one at this year's Monterey Historics, I have to say BMW has a real winner on it's hands. I only hope that BMWNA doesn't drop the ball on advertising it properly. That Xmas-mini tree is excellent!



Me, I'll wait for the Monte Carlo Rally edition w/4wheel drive.

That's not a bad looking car. I wonder if we'll get it here in the US and what is it going to cost?
