RCmod told me that the mini never came out because they lost the licensing rights with BMW. they were going to come out with a Z3 body style and an e46 style, but they didn't want to pay the ridiculous amount that associated with the BMW name.

Volkswagon was a cheap alternative and they closed the deal on that. they were also planning on having a VW bus body, but the beetle didn't receive the amount of love MS was expecting due to the scalpers buying up all the Beetles and reselling them for an arm and a leg. they may try again in the future, but now there newest concern is releasing the Lambo Contach, a few Ferrari styles and Porsches. ofcourse bit char-g has the promotional lock, but MS will follow suit in the months to come.

the next thing is posting the perspectus for all to see. haha
