    You've a bad stutter, your trying to say M M M M M MINI, it may look like it has the aerodynamics of a brick, that said here are the Aerodynamic statistics:

    Currently I can only quote for the following:

    Citroen DS3 150 THP (not DS3-R)

    Drag coefficient: 0.310

    BMW MINI JCW (not GP 2)

    Drag coefficient: 0.370


    Citroen DS3 150 THP (not DS3-R)

    Frontal area: 2.29 m√

    BMW MINI JCW (not GP 2)

    Frontal area: 2.00 m√


    Citroen DS3 150 THP (not DS3-R)

    CDA (combination drag coefficient area): 0.71

    BMW MINI JCW (not GP 2)

    CDA (combination drag coefficient area): 0.74

    As you can see from the statistics above the BMW MINI (Aerodynamics of a brick) are not surpassed much by the Citroen DS3, that said the CDA for the BMW MINI GP 2 has been reduced from extensive wind tunnel designed aero package including a roof spoiler which works in harmony with the front splitter, engine under tray, flat floor (under belly) and rear diffusers, which vastly improves its ability to reach its 150 top speed, and very impressive levels of cornering grip, not bad for aero brick!

      As you can see from the statistics above the DS3 has been reduced from extensive focus group designed aero package including a roof spoiler which any aerodynamic purpose is pure happenstance, the front lip that most likely actually has a function, No engine under tray, Unflat floor (under belly) and rear panel designed to round out the looks of the car, which vastly hinders its ability to reach its 130mph top speed, and very impressive levels of cornering grip for what the car is

                          I'm sure the feelings would be reciprocated. Anyone ever tell you, you can be a right cunt sometimes?
