Hmm...what a coincidence. After you posted that video, the dealership informed me that they have a Buffalo Bill Edition Clubman available .

I have to say, it doesn't look too bad in that color all shined up. Horns on the hood and a customized plate "Tatanka" would finish it out nicely.

Is that a yes ? :)

For you JD, that is an affirmative. I never understood (actually yes I do; Sales) why a company takes a great design like the Mini, then decides to incorporate redesigns / changes that alter it's original allure; Small, Cute, handles like a Go-Kart.

Given your offbeat proclivities, I'd say it's about perfect.

P.S. Those bigger black wheels helped immensely IMO vs. the prior page's photos. The earlier white car is near outright hideous visually in comparison. Your Car, Your Choice Brother........:cheers:

JD.....Shoot me an email please........Mark.

I'd get it, although I'm a bit partial to convertibles.
Looks like a fun car.

I've been seeing quite a few of those 1 series Bimmers also, they look quite sharp for a small car.

Add a couple of packages to the BMW 1 series crossover, and your nigh on to 40k real quick. Not worth it IMO.

Having previously owned an '08 Cooper S, I can attest to the vehicle's limitations in terms of seating and cargo space. My guess is that Mini is trying to expand upon the success Cooper by creating a more accommodating version of it such as the Clubman and Countryman. Thus, appealing to an even larger market. Case in point, I would love to own another Mini again, however, my lifestyle and needs are much different now ( i.e. dogs), so the standard Cooper is not sufficient .

Like I said JD, shoot me an email when you get a chance. Life is all about choices, and you have to make them according to your circumstances. I have a few kids, the wife has an Odyssey we bought 8 years back................I'm getting older (as are the kids) and have taken the "hauler" position over from the wifey, as a result I chose a 3 row seating SUV for a company vehicle. Since she likes it, she will be acquiring a 5.0 Mustang Convertible in two years, she's driven minivans for over 13 years while I've had fun with company DD's (BMW's, Maximas, Corvettes, GTO's, etc.), it's my turn to haul now. A couple of the kids are driving, my time to haul is short. I've frankly grown to like sitting up high and putting it in "D". Maybe you're ready for the same.............
