I've got a new Gears up at Metro Weekly on the 2008 Mini Cooper S.
In short, there's a lot to love about the Mini, and the new
enhancements, mostly stylistic, don't do anything to change that. The
new Mini Clubman -- a larger version of the car that should address
some of the Cooper's problems with storage area and back seat
passengers (it doesn't have any and it doesn't hold any) -- is out soon
and I'm awaiting my chance at the wheel. Given the interest in the car,
though, I don't expect to get a crack at it until mid-summer at the
earliest.
Because I'm slacking, I've neither noted the earlier review of the Lexus IS 350 nor finished the logo for this embryonic site. Soon, soon, I promise.
