If it is Chili Red, then of course it's ok. If not, then tell him to get Chili Red.

Easy solution:
You-ify yours more. Add bonnet stripes, roof graphics, etc etc. Keep going until the friend can't keep up. Then you win

Ditto on the stripes and graphics, and other ways to mod your MINI. And you must do it to the banjo theme from "Deliverance" like that MINI commercial a year ago.

The answer is obviously that yours just has to be faster. And start with a personalized plate that says "ORIGINAL" or "HECOPYS" or "IWSFRST" or "MNSFSTR." You get it.

you have 2 options.
1) kill yourself
2) relax... lighten up... and run around in a group and call yourself a mafia.
not that i would know anything about having friends with the exact same color car or anything.

Nothing Wrong with a Non-S.

I'd think, "wow, no wonder we're friends -- they have amazing taste!!!"
Nothing wrong with another Mellow Yellow in the world! I hope my friends buy one!
