Will it tow a bass boat?

At least it was just paddle shifters. If the note said "Your MINI was so excited to meet you it left the factory without brakes" we would be writing a very different story.

I know I'm probably a minority; but I own a Camry and I happen to be a good driver with a completely clean record.
