Mini takes the states jell-o factory stop

Guess there was a good turn out with mtts in my neck of the woods-ish. Spotted this in the local paper today. Is that a member in the new f56?

If you want to see ugly go look at a Fiat 500L. The F56 looks great when you're sitting in one!

We were waiting for the 2014 to come out before making our decision on what to do. The interior is in a whole other league in the new car. It is indeed a very nice car. But, as my wife said, "I don't drive a car. I drive a MINI. THIS does not drive like a MINI.". Combine that with the ugly deformed look from the windshield forward, and we knew we had to find a new 2013 before they were all gone. That day, we drove home in what you see in the signature below.

That looks like one of the MINI USA cars. I'm still on the fence for the looks. To me, it really depends on the color. As for performance, the F56 is impressive. I was fortunate enough to get a "hot lap" with a pro driver in St. Louis. They handled the rainy track with ease.
