MINI headlining at Porsche :-)

Apparently we CAN hang with the "big boys."
This is down the road from where I live in Nanuet, NY.

Isn't there a price sticker on the passenger window? Doesn't that just mean someone traded that car in for a porsche?

What was he/she thinking!!!!!??????

They are just trying to upgrade their used car inventory.


Understandable.

I didn't check the price. I see the car every day on my commute though... I just pulled up on the shoulder of the road in front, snapped the shot and then sped away - barking the tires in second gear (in case any of those Porsche folks' were out there spying on ME). ;-)

There may be some forum members that own both. Two great cars. The MINI for everyday and the Porsche for weekend.
