MM, I think you are referring to "Hammer and Coop".

Ian Cull, yes, this is 110% marketing and there is nothing wrong with that. This campaign gets the blood flowing.

How about a poster of the Challenge ? Use the the graphics from the model cars’ blister pack. 24 x 36. And I agree on the T-Shirts. They’re Classic!

Clever promotion. Humor similar to "Cooper and Hutch" or whatever that was called back in '07.

The funny thing is that there are ignorant types out there who won't realize it's a gag and will acually be impressed that Minis are "that" fast.

Either way it's a win for Mini.

Makes a good fantasy toy, just like a childs hummer with missiles and rockets.

I say to Brad Davis, Jim and MINI in general let me have a couple of my classic Mini Cooper S friends setup a autocross build specifically for the classic Mini and you can bring your jcw MINI and lets see who owns who....

Just saw one of the Audi commercials referring to BMW as the "loser" in the sport sedan market. I wonder if the MINI vs. Porsche ad campaign is some kind of subtle passive/aggressive way of BMW getting back at the Porsche/Audi group.

Whatever the reasons, i love the ad campaign -- keep it up MINI!

It looks as though the wheels on the card are Web Spokes and the wheels on the model are S Winders.

I'd love to have a set of these. All of my other matchbook sized models are of the R53.
