I have been wondering whose car that is or where I can find out about it.
I want to know what kind of wheels those are and what size. It looks like
it has been lowered, so I assume that they are 17" rims.
But it is a sweet looking S.
Does anyone know who makes the rims?

You can find the wheels here ...

http://www.seffects.com/catalog/prod...e=HELOHE358-17

This wheel does come in the 4x100mm bolt pattern your car requires and weights 27 pounds each.

I am doing my car somewhat like that one, my top is DS though.

I have an '03 MCS.
Is is Liquid Yellow with a black roof. I have the Premium package
with Panther leather.
So far, all I have done is Limo tint all the windows and a roof graphic.
Next week, I am ordering my intake and new springs.

Next month, it will go to my friend to put the sound system in.
It will be a Lightning Audio system because of the yellow Amps and speakers

I ordered my MINI with specific plans to upgrade it. Didn't waste the money on
rims becuae I was just going to remove them anyway. But I have the same plans as most. Magnaflow exhaust, rims, earo kit, etc. It isn't just a dream, I am going to do it! I just need to finish my other car first.

I am in the finishing stages of the restoration on my 64' SS Chevelle. Once that is sold, I am ripping my MINI apart and makinging it an even sweeter ride that it is now.

How about yourself?

Thanks....I think.

As for the MINI in 2 Fast @ Furious, I don't think it is going to happen.
Filming started last September and wrapped up in January.
There were not to many MCS available at the time.
I'm sure they could have got one if they really wanted to though.
Even if they did, was there really enough time and parts to make a sweet
Mini that would meet the standard of the other cars in the movie.

But the main reason I don't think there will be one is that the movie had a lot of help from Mitsubishi. They supplied all kinds of cars for the filming. The main car driven my Brian Spilner in the film is a new Evolution. Tyrese drives an Eclipse Convert.

Mitsubishi is also starting a "Tuner" division where people will be able to order cars with tuner parts or go in and buy them from the dealership.

So, I regret to say, from all the pictures I have had the chance to view on the net and in the magazines, no MINI was ever found.

But we can only hope.

The signature was just for fun....and wishfull thinking.
