I kind of like the badge...might be cool up until the point a disgruntelled M owner desides to key your MINI .

I really like the stripes on MSFITOY's MCS though. Its a nice color combo.

I'll stir the pot.

The ONLY badge on my new MCS, that is not glued on, is the tag under the hood.

It says manufactuered by BMW.

Pffft. The BMW people are just miffed because we are the ones that actually got the 'ulltimate driving machines', but for half the price, twice the fun, endless amounts more positive reactions and none of the yuppie stigma.

Well, unless they got an M3 or M5. Then I'd have to give the "ultimate driving machine" crown to them. Otherwise, you're right on the money. :smile:

I saw an Audi A4 with S4 badges on it the other day. The problem was that he didn't take off the 1.8T badge before he stuck on the S4 badges. Not really fooling anyone...
