Here it is, the one you’ve been waiting for. We had a chance to speak to the MINI Design team this past Monday at the Detroit Auto Show and touched on everything from the R60 to the Beachcomber to the forthcoming Roadster and Coupé. It’s definitely the highlight of our interviews and is incredibly insightful.

We’re back! full crew to start off 2010 under the White Roof!
Sure we talk about a few things from Motoringfile.com. Sure we goof off a bit. Heck, we even pick on Michael for driving a VW again. Good times to be sure. But do you care? Doubtful.
You see, Todd and Gabe are in Detroit as you read this, hanging out at NAIAS. They will be snapping photos and interviewing everyone we already know and love at MINI and MINI USA about all of the hot button topics that are coming up like they R60, The Twins and The R56 refresh. Keep an eye on MF, WRR and your iTunes for updates as they become available.
And, if you missed it, AMVIV registration is now open! Go on over and get that taken care of because it will be March before you know it! Of course we’ll have Agro and Mark on from the Sin City MINI Club very soon for more details.
