Even though I am not a fan of this model, way to go MINI

 

No surprise to me...I ordered one before ever actually driving one Congrats MINI

So did I...

 

Me too. Drove a Coupe, but never even saw a Roadster in person, only pictures.

 

As I said before, I love my roadster, but I also think there are some angles where it looks odd. I love the wheels to the corners design on the hardtop but from certain angles the roadster rear quarter looks odd with the wheel all the way to the corner combined with the rear deck. Heck, the only thing I can think of better than having my roadster is having a hardtop also. Oh well, dreams are what life is made of.

 

Congrats to Mini and BMW. Nice to see the Roadster being appreciated. Fun yet fuel efficient car with excellent space utilization for the size. I agree with jhull413 that the rear of the car leaves something to be desired visually.

 

That's funny, I did the same thing. I saw the Roadster for the first time and bought it. I didn't even know what it had for options.

Way to go MINI!!!

 

Congrats Mini ! I bought Mine in the 30th of december 2011. what a nice christmas gift ! I'm still in love.
when I saw the concept in Francfort autoshow in 2009, I will change my R56 hatch only for that car ! and I did it !!!
