  | nice but i see that fiat 500 problem at the rear too(thinner rear lights may helpt ... à la SUV Concept) i'd also be cautious with flame surface styling on a mini i really like the idea of such a car, this is definitly something i could see myself driving around btw awesome rims Last edited by jack; 05-20-2009 at 10:14 AM. |

That's like Lexus fanboys claiming that a new Merc has Lexus design elements. Tycoon's shot looks hot too! Eni, get back here. Is this the new Mini????

| LOL It was the same guy who designed both MkI Mini and the 500, Frank Stephenson. So now wonder if there is some resemblance.  |

| @bmer Stephenson didn't design the 500. but he brought the existing 500 concept design to production. both cars (the old 500 and the mini) also had similar rear designs in the past. but the MINi seems to have a more vertical rear then the R53/R56, which makes the similarities even easier to make out.   |

| (to Jack) Eni doesn't respond to this thread anymore either. Considering that in terior fake pic and me not seeing this new Mini on other sites.......I'd say fake. Guido, thanks! That design concept looks better than the R56.
