They had two New Mini's at the recent SEMA Show. One was a stock car. BRG
with a white roof if I remember correctly. And they had a Red with white
roof prepped one from Mini Mania. This baby had 17 inch rims with 40 series
tires, big brakes, racing seats, yada yada yada, the entire upcoming Mini
Mania catalog.
The Mini looked to be just about the same size as my old Ford Fiesta. I
couldn't help think that Ford could have developed the Fiesta into this
same car in the early 1980's if they hadn't gotten sidetracked with the
Escort World Car Project.
I gotta be honest. This new Mini is cool, but I would much rather have an
original Cooper S with a breathed on 1275.
God Save the Queen.
