MINI has premiered the MINI "Inspired By Goodwood" and built in collaboration with Rolls Royce (another BMW=owned company) in advance of the Shanghai Auto Show. It brings Rolls Royce levels of refinement and luxury to a package that is much more space and energy efficient. Only 1,000 will be made.
The car interior is all leather, wood and plush carpet and its aCooper S without the non-functional hood-scoop. No pricing information has been provided, but if you have to ask you probably can't afford it. Launch date is the spring of 2012.
