BruceK you are ever so the diplomat... Mr.Bill, I believe an automobile can be more than the sum of it's parts; i.e. the MINI. The matrix on the other hand is a bunch of parts taken from other car's parts bins. It has too much Pontiac styling in it. I'm sure it will be a great Toyota but it won't be a MINI.. At least for a couple of years until they benchmark the Cooper. Then they can build a car to duplicate the MINI Cooper S.

Looks too much like an Aztek. Is it a station wagon or a mini minivan?
