A very sparkly MINI

How'd you like to polish this car?

I wonder how much weight that added...

Seems odd they'd make this "American Icon" car out of a thoroughly British car.

How'd you like to have to repair the damage after an accident?

I hope they used strong glue. Not that they'd actually drive it, but imagine it going down the highway, dropping crystals.

It's as if someone swallowed Las Vegas and puked it up on that poor MINI.

Considering that they had to affix all of the crystals by hand, they probably just figured "damn, let's pick a small car - I don't want to be doing this for the rest of my life".
