I visited the NYC Auto Show yesterday and checked out the MINI display. I think MINI had more of it's cars on display than any other marque (easier to do than with Hummers, right!). It was very busy there. They all looked beautiful under the display lights. The only new information they had was a handout on the John Cooper Works conversion, which one of the display cars was fitted with: $4,500 for the parts plus dealer labor. I didn't see a single car at the show that I would rather own than my MINI (although VW did a nice job with the new Beetle convertible, and the BatMobile was interesting).
