As much as I love this thing, I hate the center slidey thingy. My daughters want to sleep while on trips and they won't be able to move around to get comfortable. I am hoping the center slidey thingy is only an option. If not, I bet the delete kit will be a big seller. Also, it is neato the rear seats move but I can't see that it will do very much for such a small vehicle. Overall, really neato vehicle. I may have missed something but I noticed that the white/black S has an All4 designation on one front door in the photos and in the video, it doesn't. I think I remember that it had the same license plate so what gives on that?

Well I'm sure it's going to happen but I won't be in the market. Not really wild about the "frowning" grill or those "rails" on the roof. Don't need 4 doors either but for those with kids it may be a winner.

U're right! It DOES look like it's frowning! That rear seat thing is in the way, like ftttu said, which doesn't make long-distance family trips comfy. Not feelin' it. I'll have 2 check it out at the auto show. Geez, MINI. I don't see smiles in its driving future w/this 1.

Depends on what angle you see the R60 from, I'm really liking it. With those "eyes" it looks more mad than sad! I'm not worried about the rail. I'm sure someone will come up with a module that will span the seats to bridge that gap. I wonder how far the rear seats will adjust.
