It's art. Not something I'd wear on a t-shirt, but to each his own. Kinda like those big-headed monster things that MINI's promoting on their website and using in ads. I much prefer the pristine beauty of the car itself.

Doesn't quite make me sick, but I don't care for those type of drawings (or the big-headed ones that g3 mentioned).

Its just a Caricature from Dave "Big" Deal. He's a professional graphic artist who has been doing this type of art for decades. If it makes you sick, well . . . avert your eyes. He's just practicing his First Amendment right of Free Speech. Sheesh!

It's a caricature... a cartoon... people have been drawing stuff like that forever. Personally, I think it's quite cool looking.

Interesting, you'll defend the artist "right" to draw but not the individual's the "right" to give his critique.

and look at the rear camber. That guy is going to have to rotate his tires every 50ft if he wants any kind of tread life

I have 4 similar t-shirts. A red, a yellow, an Indi Blue and an Electric Blue. I wear them regularly. In fact, I'll be wearing the yellow/black one for all the pulley party and registration fun at the MINI Vacation in Vegas on friday.

I think it's way cool, but I'd wait until they come out with the S version before I'd put it on a t shirt.

I kind of like these "wicked art" type drawings. Anyone got a link to someone who will do a "custom" one of your car?
