Something about it is...off. Might look better without the roof spoiler

MCMLXXXIX · 08-25-2009, 11:07 PM

love it!
the back...i dont know what to say. i dont like it but i love it!

nusevad · 08-25-2009, 11:15 PM

Looks awesome, its making me want to get one in red or black just to mod the crap out of it and to whip around on weekends...

Matty C · 08-25-2009, 11:57 PM

Don't like it at all. Looks like a Peugeot with retractable hardtop. They need to go totally new or stick with what they got.

m3pare · 08-26-2009, 04:24 AM

not bad..

LI E90 · 08-26-2009, 08:26 AM

the roof is odd, it looks like a poor fitting targa to me

///Mike135i · 08-26-2009, 08:33 AM

Looks hideous. I don't mind the mini or even the mini traveller but this is terrible imo.

Scorpion · 08-26-2009, 08:46 AM

They need to do something with the roof, then it would be nice.

gonzo · 08-26-2009, 08:54 AM

I'm in. I like it. No word on pricing?

A black roof will look better IMO.

Anyone willing to ps on this pic?

blue2fire · 08-26-2009, 09:05 AM

Oh My God!

What are these people doing?

They would start suggesting some crazy Mini SUV next if this keeps up.

graider · 08-26-2009, 09:14 AM

honestly I think it looks even more hideous than the regular mini. whatsup with these funky junks that bmw came up with lately?

daixloxbmw · 08-26-2009, 10:05 AM

looks like it is wearing a bicycle helmet.

blue2fire · 08-26-2009, 10:14 AM

Brings me to why i hate the X6 so much, you sacrifice the extra seats, much of the boot and rear visibility because you want your car to be more ugly?

This is crap, all well and good when they invent new nameplates for their Ginger beer ideas but suggesting that the Mini is anything other than a fabulously practical and fun runabout is enough to make Issigonis turn in his grave.

vgame64 · 08-26-2009, 10:37 AM

I like it.

Hawkeye · 08-26-2009, 10:39 AM

Looks like it is wearing a toupee... not my cup o' tea

Ender514 · 08-26-2009, 10:45 AM

weird looking

JoosyJoos · 08-26-2009, 11:11 AM

Its cool in a weird way. I think it'll look great in the JCW styling (Red with black accents everywhere) or all blacked out. Wonder what pricing will be...? Only bummer is the FWD

anthony @ eas · 08-26-2009, 11:22 AM

100% ruined. Absolutely, terribly hideous.

Spec 1 · 08-26-2009, 11:54 AM

I'm really digging it. Would make me consider having a Mini just to trick it out.

EINSER M · 08-26-2009, 12:20 PM

liking it!!!!

The roof spoiler looks like a WIG!

Although the rest of the car looks pretty good.
