I showed these pictures to a couple of girl friends of mine and their first words were "cute". They said it was so cute even they would have trouble owning it, that it's too Hello Kitty cute. LOL... I guess I'll keep looking .

I appreciate the compliment, but I do like yours. I bet it looks even better in the right lighting.

It's cute that you care what other's think. For my .02 it looks very nice, although not hot or cute. ;-)

I think these cars may always be plagued by the unknowing uninformed with an opinion calling them the “C” word and similar. Having owned two, being a guy, and a known car guy people seem to delight in these car shaming slurs. And yes, they’re usually well intended.

And I don’t care one bit. Really. Nothing. I love driving them and enjoy knowing these cars can do what few others can in the right hands. I may have slightly eclectic car tastes. But I know what I like, and at this point in my life don’t care at all what the uninformed think.

For what it’s worth, great colors and it looks like a slick-top from what I can see. More cred from those in the know. 3 pedals and the discussion ends. Get what you like ... and roll on!! I mean Motor On.

I like it and as a three time Mini owner I've heard the "C" word many times, it didn't really matter but I think this one is cute. Not a bad thing actually. Still considering it.

Bring it to the Tail of Dragon, strap the naysayers in the passenger seat and then ask them if they brought their diapers with them . . . . . .

Cute, sure it is.
