Ahhhh,  it's cute.  And different.  Spent a good long time looking one 
over in a parking lot the other day..  They're probably a load of fun.

Of course,  set one down, and a 147 down next to it,  and you can guess 
which one I'll put my money on..

Now, is Mini-mania neccicarly a bad thing?  Think about it.  It's 
changing the minds of the masses about getting a car like everyone 
else's car,  to how cool it might be to have a different car very few 
have..  Kinda a mental sea change from recent years' thinking of yet 
another Acura, Infiniti,  ___ SUV,  ___ SUV,  slightly different,  same 
old cars

And just the kind of thoughts that will help when a certain "different" 
Italian car maker is selling cars on this side of the pond again..

Go, Mini-mania!  ;-)
