More Real-World Photos of the MINI Concept From the Paris Motor Show
Since MF readers can’t get enough of this latest MINI concept (for better or worse) we wanted to point your attention to some new real-world photos from the floor of the Paris Motor Show. We’d ask you to give us your take but we’re guessing you won’t need much persuasion there.
I’m excited about this concept. It’s a bit more appealing to me than the Clubman – though I do like clubman. Thanks.
I’m curious if they’ll offer it with a more powerful motor because of the all-wheel drive.
Mini Vanilli – that’s a good call. I agree, it has a distinctly mini look to it while having some blend of other designs. Looking forward to more info in the coming months – or versions – like the did with the Clubman.
Which leads to a question of…
When this is introduced, will the Clubman interest drop off? After all, Crossman gets two rear side doors extra. Perhaps Clubman was a stop-gap, which may be why extra money and development did not go into the relocation of gas filler and lh clubdoor.
I drove a classic ’76 Cooper yesterday. Made me realize how far all this is going. Got back in my cabrio and it felt….”big”. Then I thought about my short lived’07 R56. Now the Clubman, and this…..
Coming soon. The Mini sedan. Hey why not? Porsche has one coming.
This is entry number 13 on the concept vehicle since 9/9. How about that MF review on the (not Clubman) factory JCW?

Uh well as soon as we get our press car we’ll start writing a review. As it stands that won’t be happening until late October.

Hope the Chicago weather is condusive to a proper road test at that late in the year. Mine goes in the garage right after Halloween.
the more i look at this, the more it looks like a MINI and an infinity FX combined. i really like the look.

I have to say the tail lights are growing on me. And I really like the transparent overlay thing thats going on with the fender vents.

The “MINI” coach bus is also in the works…
I am sorry to say, but my honeymoon with this concept was come to an end.
