What do y'all think of the new Mini (by BMW)?

It's about 1 foot shorter than the Miata. Not a speedster, but looks kinda fun.

 

i hear that it's not mini at all...was reading the brit's CAR magazine and a reader pointed out how "large" the new mini is. talk about oxymoron.

 

Thumbs up from me...

Although the Mini is bigger than my old one (pictured), it's still a pretty tiny car by today's standards. I love the design and I think it captures and modernizes the essence of what has made this car a worldwide success that also revolutionized the auto industry. I'd consider it when I see the 4wd Monte Carlo version, Alpina version or heck, even the Cooper S version in a few years. Rumors have Cooper Garages tuning engines making 250+hp.

 

Personally, I think it looks hideous. I'm not much for the retro styling found in the Mini or the PT Cruiser though.

 

I like the new Mini, as well as the old one. I'm thinking about replacing my Integra with a new Mini (maybe Mini Cooper S) as my daily driver

 

I love the new Mini. Looking foward to seeing one in the flesh. A friend of mine is on a list to get one.
But I really want an EVO VII.

 

saw it at the car show at NYC and all i can say is the car looks 100times better in person and i love it just from photos. thinking about getting one as my daily driver when i get the chance.

 

bows head let us pray

 

I love the mini. Since we're wishing for cool rally cars, I'd take a 206 over the EVO or 'buru any day.
