I told myself I wouldn't do this, but here goes - how 'bout a HB/W MCS with the new white sport stripes? And white S-lites?

Awesome work, COOPERation. I love the movie, so these are great!!

Apperently we don't fit into the idea of "the great american road trip" and NASCAR. But there are roads in that Movie I sure do wish I could drive.

The word is, they started work on the movie before the MINI was available, hence none in the movie. There are quite a few Pixar employees who drive MINIs, so I'm sure if they had had the opportunity, they would have put at least one in.

I think it's baloney... The Ferrari F430 that Schumacher voiced wasn't introduced until 2004-2005. The "mini" has been around for sooo long, and the MINI longer then the F430.

Wikipedia F430

I didn't think that was a F430, but if it is, you're right. If that's the case, maybe they couldn't get MINI's permission to use the car.

EDIT: Production on the movie started in late 2001.

Nice job! I wish I was any good with photoshop. If I was, I'd make mine look more like my actual Mini (no hood stripes and the stock snowflake wheels).

Maybe I'll drag it into Paint Shop Pro and see what I can do.
