Hope they work all the bugs out before they arrive in the United States...
CAN'T WAIT!!!!
How are you guys going to order your Mini's???
If you think the 1.8T GTI is a pig you should try a VR6 GLX GTI like my freinds 2001, leather, auto climate control etc, etc, it is an absolute hog - he'll be singing the blues when my Cooper S is here in a few months - CAN"T WAIT!!!
I'll have to look up that Car and Driver article I didn't notice the side markers. It would be a shame if the U.S. spec Mini is significantly different than what we've seen in the magazines.
This may be the first car I've owned in a long time that I won't have to tweak the suspension. I like to add at least performance springs (ususally Eibach)that lower it an inch or so, shocks (Bilstein) and a swaybar or two depending on what I'm working on. As stiff as the Mini structure is I doubt it'll need a strut tower brace either. About the only thing I may need to do is put sticky Z rated tires on it.
