Check out those wheels, LOVE EM! :D

The rear wing is... different, but I don't mind.

Love the body kit styling, too!

Yep looks awesome..

Seems they are only making 2000 of them though :?

I wonder if any of them will make it over here...

20 of them will land here apparantly.

Not many BINI owners are liking them either. Personally I think it is fugly. Those red mirror caps are just wrong.

i'd read about this, but hadn't seen any pictures. i really really like it. though there are certain things i wish they'd work on for weight reduction, and leave other things. for instance, a rear seat is rather handy at times - whereas i'm sure there'd be a fair bit of stuff they could do with trim/dash etc that would help with the weight. kinda like the M3 CST. still, i'd gladly have one in my garage.

Sounds great..

I wonder if they will be sold before they even arrive..

I for one would certainly love to own one and with a bit of luck hopefully my claim will be sorted out by then too :)..

not enough weight saving considering it's now a 2 seater.

still, I wouldn't say no to a test drive!

At the time of the unveiling at MINI United in Misano MINI were already holding deposits for all except 35.

Initial reactions from some on MINI2, Motoringfile and NAM indicated that there might now be a few more available as people asked for their deposits back.

That wing on the back is a flimsy mock up, the production version may look a little better.
