Yeah its too big to have the name "mini" imo. Just look at it beside mine in that side view.

I kinda like the new MINI. I could never shoehorn myself into the original. i just barely fit in the FC.

Well the cool thing about the old mini is there is more room than you realize. My cousin flew to florida with me to pic mine up, he is about 6' and weighs a good 300-350lbs, and he fit comforatable in it all the way back to NC. Its just something you have to sit in to really believe.

Yeah its funny cause the first thing people always say when they get into it is "wow this thing is pretty roomy!". It has back seats, but unless your a midget or have no legs......well i've taken 3 people around in the car, with a girl in the back, she was fine.
