This car hits all the buttons! AWD manual wagon! Aaaaa! I am waiting for the new Countryman to make a decision, since an AWD manual suv is also something which hits a few buttons and may have more space which is wife mandated these days.

Other Hondas go in here.

They’re a throwback to the original Mini’s interior. It works pretty well once you get used to it, other than the window switches. On the 2nd gen, they’re the fartest out switches on either side of the row below the climate control. It’s the one thing I’d seriously like to change about mine. There’s just no reason…

Have you not seen any of the modern MINIs? This is actually far closer to “normal” than what used to go there...

Mr. Hyundai was afraid to drive
He packed his suitcase and kissed electric concepts goodbye
He waited his whole damn life for a hybrid car

If someone is looking for a compact wagon or hatchback the BMW 3 series might be too big for them or not fuel efficient enough. Mini as of October sold 49k vehicles this year. I would rather people be driving small premium cars with turbo engines than full size crossovers and brodozer trucks.

I got some seat time in a new Clubman the other day. One of my good friends is a product trainer for Mini and he gets his hands on cars before they’re available to the public all the time.
