MINIs - he or she?

I would like to think of my MINI (Sgt. Pepper) as a guy

Well, MINIs have a bonnet, but I think you blokes over across the pond feel this is irrelevant....

Extension

I say a great car is not really a he or she, but becomes an extension of the driver him/herself! The cars personality will become that of the owner. Furthermore, the MINI has so many looks, from the sleek dangerous looking black/black combo, to the frolicing Yellow/Black, to the speedy Red/White that I can't imagine how you could assign it one specific sex. It's like asking what the sex of blue jeans is.

Thus, I find it impossible to choose male or female.

"Scout" is a he, however... he is named after the girl in To Kill a Mockingbird... and he does have this cute license plate:
.

But he's pure silver and black, and being an S, he's all horsepower so he gets to be a boy.
