I'd like to see the wheels. Look like an interesting design from what you can see in the top shot.

Actually, I like it. I think that the traditional LV needed a makeover. I mean I understand it's a classic but I like the Murakami stuff because it's a nice twist on tradition.

Boy if you think that LV theme leaves something for desire, they even got the cockpit wrong, they put the steering wheel on the right side!

I asked my wife about the Murakami bag...she's not a big LV fan in any case, she prefers the more obscure Prada designs - doesn't like to have a bag everybody else has. She has a bag fetish, but tries to steer clear of the logo print bags.

When she buys a bag, I add another performance mod to my MINI...ha!

I think the LV MINI is a pic from Asia - either Hong Kong or Tokyo.

The first time I saw one of those new style handbags from LV, I liked it. Since I've been seeing them around, yuck. It has not grown on me, quite the contrary. I have one of the metallic LVs, bronze. I have another that has one small logo and Louis Vuitton through the strap. Very understated.....and large! I like a large handbag sometimes, like for everyday. No one has ever noticed that that one is an LV, but it suits my needs.

The car is pretty cool though. And Asians love their LV, sorry to stereotype, it's only what I see.

<sarcasm> Yeah that regular brown on brown LV coloring scheme is really great looking. White with bright colors is just plain UGLY!</sarcasm>

The funnier thing is the tourists who go into the LV store in Beverly Hills, only to buy the shopping bag and walk around with it.

The only time i've seen the bag other than in media, is the one time my girlfriend used hers. She will only carry hers out for special occasions. SHe literally had people asking, "How much did oyu pay?", "How did you get one?", "Is it real?", and all that b.s. It really is amazing how tactless people can be. I also told my girlfriend "Now you know what it's like driving a MINI!"

I carry mine daily (only one at a time of course!) If I'm going to spend that kind of money on a darn purse, I'm using it!! The bronze metallic gets all kinds of compliments, but no one has ever asked me all those rude questions. The other one (don't even know the style, doesn't have LV's all over it) has never gotten noticed. I don't care, I've been using it most of the time since March.
