I feel like "reviewed by Doug" should be a selling point for this car
True
Fr
Doug'd.
Maserati would never be seen again with that rating :)
It should be for any car
This guy kinda look like the cars and bids guy
He also looks like the "More Doug Demuro" guy
Hey Jackson, thanks for the epic comment.
Looks like some guy I've seen on Autotrader
Dusty Dude nah the other guy has a blue shirt
Should hace named it Cars and Thisssss
Doug is the type of guy to call you and say, "I can't talk"
😂😂😂
Bruh
I could see Doug dailying this
Same
Well he once dailied an Aston Martin and a Dodge Viper so.

That or a Lancia Delta Chupacabra Macarena thing.
I would daily this
Mini: We'll sell a manual version of all of our cars
Also mini: *Except our top tier "race" model.*
Manuals are slower than the best automatics nowadays. So unless you want your 'race' model to not be slower for nostalga.......
@@StaticFalconar nobody buys a mini for speed bro they buy it because it's fun and autos arent fun
@@StaticFalconar driving a manual isn't about "nostalgia"... smh. With all due resoect, with a comment like that, I'm gonna guess you don't know how to drive one.
@@StaticFalconar exactly what @blzt said. No one is taking a Mini to the drag strip lol
shit man that made me physically gag when I read it
So a “fender bender” becomes a cost catastrophe. Because there may not be a custom numbered panel just laying around.
dang good point lol
You just have to accept the fact that you'll never be able to replace it if it gets damaged. I'm sure you can order the part, but it won't be numbered and you'll likely pay out the ass for it. I assume at some point or another an aftermarket company will pick up the slack and make custom decals or panels, but you'll never get a factory replacement. Behold, the woes of the upper class.
Royce Zaro woes of the upper class? Let me tell you a secret, “wealthy” people have car insurance. You’ll make a nice profit if this car gets wrecked.
Oh, it's fine. The numbering looks like some kind of quick laser engraving in the surface. Order replacements and Mini will ask you "What number do you need etched on the left/right/both panels?"
I was thinking the same thing.
Doug the kinda guy who trips over a wireless controller
Lol 😂
Nice
🤣
N o I C e
He trips over the fracture between time and space caused by the signals to control the game from the controller, that he only can see,
*Opens Mini's hood

Mini: *how can we gain attention of Type R owners??*
Tht one silent employee: *big winnnggg*

I broke my feet today because I kicked my computer because someone commented that my videos are bad! I hate unjustified criticism. Please wish me a speedy recovery, dear jose

The quirks and features of the video
Thank you
Imagine thinking you’re fast, then getting gapped by a mini😭
Imagine being the guy doing the gapping... That would be me! I have an '10 MINI Cooper S Clubman that I have been building for the past year and a half. If you do it smart you can turn a MINI into an unbelievable sleeper. My slightly weight reduced MINI is FBO with a bigger upgraded BorgWarner AirWerks SX K03 turbo. I obliterate most cars in my class, but the real fun is getting a win against the bigger V8s! I do not gap them but I do usually win by a car or a half a car. It's crazy because I did not build my car for straight lines. It's built "for the curves" and it was really surprising when I learned that my car was actually capable of taking down $80,000 BMWs. The insane 60-120mph pick up was not expected. The guys at GermanTech Motorsports (the shop who helped me with my build) were also surprised. It has not been easy though and building the car has been a complete pain in the butt overcoming all of the "set backs" that come with building a MINI. There are sensors for sensors and some of the engineering is completely sideways. It is the most fun car that I have ever built. What's insane is that I haven't even touched the internals yet. Thats where the real fun is going to start!
By the way... My car will gap that GP...
@@peaceup5519do u have it on your ig? u should make a yt video on it
@@peaceup5519 I feel that MINI lies about the specs of their cars, specially the John Cooper Works models. I own a 2019 JCW 3 door hatch and it actually feels faster than MINI says. A friend of mine (he owns a Lamborghini Huracan actually and a Mazda 3 btw) drove it before I started to modify it. His reactions were like: WTH is this?! It’s amazing to drive! I know why you actually love your car and it feels faster than MINI says about its specs. It doesn’t have a lot of mods (only APR Repro Stage 1 and the JCW Pro Exhaust) but it feels pretty good.
@@peaceup5519 r/iamverybadass
"... didn't have a manual that can handle the power and torque"
Honda: "weak"
No one makes a FWD manual as well as Honda. Everyone I've driven has been fantastic.
Hahahaha, perfect Track Car for Ladies!
@@TryHarderPlease I will respectfully disagree. The shifter feels too light, arcade-y and "not connected". Clutch pedals are too small and too light. Clutch biting/grabbing point feels too "economy" car. Modern ones have overly-intrusive rev hang + clutch delay valve.
In comparison, anything Italian, German or British will have better overall gearbox feel.
Sasa Zapadnik I personally hate any FWD manual cars. Go drive a Camaro, corvette or even a dodge dually and you’ll never go back. Being able to move the shifter at all while in gear is unacceptable.
A real bisexual petrol-head no but y’all seem like car enthusiasts who would enjoy a firm manual trans. I’ll never buy another automatic Honda again, most unreliable turds ever. Literally looking at 5 civics and an accord in the yard right now. All blown automatic transmissions. Hell one I bought only made it 100 miles before it took a shit.
I’m really not a fan of anything fwd unless it’s just a gas saver car. Even then my corvette gets 32 or so freeway and my accord only got like 28. Kind of silly cars since they don’t do anything well. The civics get like 35, I had one hybrid that got 60 though. That’s the only one I miss
Doug saying "the ultimate flex" was my favorite part of the episode!
Lmao
The culture has officially been stolen
When does he say it
Triple 7 23:09
doug is such a normal looking guy. but will also show up in a 500,000 Ford GT
When I saw this car up for sale at my local mini dealership I was worried that no one had made a review of it yet. Being a super unusual car. But to my surprise, here come Mr. Doug Muro!! I could t believe my eyes. I love your reviews and was super excited to see this one! Thank you so much for this review. And please keep up the amazing reviews man!!!
Manufacturers: is that enough Logos?
Mini Cooper: *GP*
Please stop with this crap
babineaux Meme comments have consumed RUclips
80%AshamedOfYou im gonna fight it no matter what it takes 😆
babineaux the problem is with people who are upvoting it. It’s not funny at all it sounds stupid.
Misaki its like emptying the ocean with a thimble
Mini Engineer: "How many GP badges do you want on this car?"
Lead Designer: "Yes"
*Ford Focus RS stares menacingly*
All of them!
They are to convince the owners they have something special when they realize they paid too much.
'Designer'
This car is meant to be a mini! It's huge - imagine if they made a new mini in the same shape as the classic mini, slightly upscaled but keeping the general shape of the original
Too bad they ruined it instead
I saw Doug's review while researching the GP3 and bought the GP3 this week. It's my first Mini Cooper vehicle. Love it. My only complaint is I wish the exhaust was more aggressive.
Drill holes in the exhaust.
@@ohioman4646 nah for a car like this get some good stuff if it was a beater then yeah
Cars driving on streets have to be muffled because driving in areas where other people live. Not a race car driving only on race-tracks.
Doesn't it have a valved exhaust? If not, get the JCW valvetronic exhaust. It's a bit more of a high flowing exhaust with the valves closed, but with them open, it's basically straight piped.
I had mini countryman as a first car.
It was dead reliable, great fuel efficiency and overall loaded with space! 😊
Is that a "hidden" GP logo that stretches all the way across and just beyond the door?
Thought I was the only one to notice that!
I noticed that and searched the comment to see 👀 😂
If you really think about it, the whole car is kind of a GP logo, with the spoiler being the right part of the P.
Doug DeMuro 😆
Doug DeMuro No Doug, its a Mini Cooper... 😜
Cleaning behind those cfrp panels looks like it will be a nightmare
Not really, power washer and pressure hose ez pz
Power washer will do the trick, it also has a factory PPF behind to protect the paint!
I agree.
@@theFORZA66 I'm thinking using a power washer on my $50K Mini seems like a great idea. Especially if it is leased.
Mini made it very clear this car is not to be cleaned
This car is $9000 away from a C8 corvette. Let that sink in.
No it isn't. Because no C8 corvette has sold for MSRP. They are all going way over asking price because Chevy / dealers are scumbags. If you're going to advertise a car for $59k then sell it for $59k. Chevy sucks.
In 10 years you will sell this mini for way more than its MSRP, I wonder at what price the 2020 C8 corvette will go in 2030 🤔
@@SioulDuRoy in 5 years all of the bmw parts will be this cars undoing...
@@SioulDuRoy What are you smoking? In 10 years these cars will have depreciated by atleast 50%. Bet you they will be going for about 15k in 10 years. Too many unreliable bmw parts not to mention the engine is making alot of power for a 4 cylinder, so I can see these having a ton of issues.
I worked for MINI for 15 years. These will all be trashed in 10 years. 80% will be falling apart and the rest will definitely be worth WAAAY less than half they’re worth now.
Doug the kind of guy to post a car review video.
Yo that’s Hilarious
ok
underrated comment
When u r out of Doug is kinda guy jokes 😁😅
To sum it all up: "affordable little performance car that's affordable" -Doug
Lol
Affordably affordable
Also Doug: "and an expensive sticker price!"
Yes
$50k is considered affordable now?
minis are so fun cuz they really do handle like a go cart, they feel so much faster cuz of how low and small they are
i like how doug hints at his upcoming reviews in his intros,makes it a bit interesting
Ikr! I just caught onto that after the Solstice review. Can't wait to see the Tahoe!
Woah I never realised thanks
It’s a good way to keep folks from skipping the Cars and Bids pitch.
Those panels are absurd. First off they look like a nightmare to clean behind, second it looks very inviting for someone to come up and start yanking on them.
And it looks like shit.
Imagine the cost of a one off panel replacement with the number on it? $5,000 please sir
My thought exactly!
A real bisexual petrol-head are you mental?
@Nicky Long Yes, he/she is.
I love it. Does it make sense as a daily driver? No. Is it ridiculous? Yes! Will be much more exclusive in years to come than its rivals and will dominate on a twisty road.

Hey Doug, you forgot to count the lap design at the door for GP badges. It is designed to look like a lap but is the initial GP so if its on both doors , thats 10.
youre welcome & thx for the 🔥 videos !
I feel like the production numbers were printed there to discourage owners from removing those plastic panels
still lookin sicccc
Stupid fenders look like a sixteen yr old designed that crap from the 90's.
A real bisexual petrol-head can’t go to the UK even if he wanted to, because of Covid travel restrictions loll
@A real bisexual petrol-head typical jealous peon with an inferiority complex.
@A real bisexual petrol-head You mad bro???
Doug at 21:23:
'There's a lot of torque steer.'
...
Doug, three seconds later:
'Not a lot of torque steer'
He was correcting himself because he didn't want to insult a car for such a flaw when there are other cars with much worse torque steer...
Doug: Most cars don't double their horsepower across the range.
Dodge: Hold my hemis.
7:31 should have given shark fin antenna to avoid such designing
yeah! I wonder why they just didn’t do that
Look closely, it actually has both.
People would’ve complained no matter what kinda antenna
Who is actually going to buy this besides hard-core mini guys? I know he mentioned the type R and a Golf R but both of those are much more functional, and also not 50k.
And it is absolutely hideous..
lol, me. (hard-core mini gal). I believe the limited availability is because they know this car is for a very niche crowd.
And have back seats lol
Because this car is the king of handling , it is much faster around a track than the others , that’s the difference and the sacrifice of having no back seat with all that chassis bracing. This is the kind of Mini for a person who has another one already for daily driving and this is the weekend track star.
I dont care for hot hatches but i really want this. It looks like a little race car. Ive never owned or wanted to own a mini cooper until i saw this one.
Looks like a WRC car, I love the look of the square fenders and the wing
Doug: This is a race car, how can you have power seats?!
Also Doug: This mini has manual seats. It would be nice to have manual seats at $50,000
Power seats at 50k*?
Power seats weigh loads :/
Though they don't actually seem to be too bothered about weight saving on this "track car", with a big infotainment system etc...
I thought the biggest thing wrong with that sentence was the $50,000. I had a r53 jcw, that car was a lot of fun. I'm sure this one is as well, I personally wouldn't spend that kind of money on it but I'm a fan of analog gauges and manual transmissions. The old school petrol head in me doesn't care for all the digital gauges and slush boxes. I get they are quicker shifts but I like being connected to the car.
“We’re going to start the quirks and features of the Mini JCW GP with one of its most notable exterior features, and that would be the Penis Wheels”
that cracked me up good job! Love what they did to the car tho IMHO it looks amazin!
Don’t get me wrong, I love Doug, I’ve been watching him for five or so years now, and this wasn’t a rip on him, I just think the wheels have a bit of a phallic shape to them
You dirty minded for that
Nicholas Wiltse bello:,,,,,,¡
After seeing this car for three seconds I love it and want one immediately
I was really excited about this until I saw it has a DCT system and no MT available. Then I wept a bit. No thanks, Mini. If I’m gonna drop that kind of coin on a car, I’d like to row my own gears.
wait... there’s no fuckin manual gp :/
I cri evrytim
Many people are really excited about MT and choose not to buy one. Big sad, even GM dumped Manual Transmission on the corvettes. .
대한건우 it makes me sad that there’s so many “fake” manual lovers. I drive a manual every single day. I don’t plan on stopping unless my body physically doesn’t allow me to.
Racingboom The Pleb same here, I daily a Mini Cooper S and i refuse to buy any future cars with an auto thanks to the 6mt in the mini. Not even hard to live with everyday people are just lazy and complain. It’s one less thing to break anyway.
I’ve only owned 2 AT cars ever. All of my other vehicles have been MT. It’s getting harder and harder to find them.
Whatever your thoughts on the GP, I will always appreciate Mini's desire to keep driving fun! So many car companies today are obsessed with simplifying and distracting from the driving process, wanting the driver to forget the thrill of being behind the wheel. I drive an F56 and for better or worse, a smile always come across my face when I sit in her, see the pulsing START button, and the winking Mini logo on the speedometer screen. Mini is happy to have me and I'm happy to have her ;)
Thanks a good comment.. same here
im 12 and this is so cool
9:45 almost reminds me of the Focus RS
Also I’ve counted a total of 17 GP badges inside and out
Definetely not enough
I used to drive an 04 Mini Cooper S, and my god that was a fun car. I've driven Velosters and civics, but I've never had as much fun in a front wheel drive car as I did in that mini
I have a 2003 R50 Cooper with only 21,000 miles. I finally starting driving it more and my old pick-up truck less. It handles and shifts (Midland 5-speed) very well and is fun to drive, I never notice it needing more power, 112 HP is fine with me....
I drive a 2013 R55 JCW clubman…after 4 years, I still have a blast flinging it through the corners. The car is such a sleeper.
I have a 2016 mini and I wish I could afford to upgrade to this thing.... once you drive a mini and feel for its amazing handling, visibility and overall acceleration you cant go back. I do see how the torq steer can be am issue though seeing that I have this same issue with my mini even though its way less powerful
I wish they'd flared the fenders, rather than adding _spats..._ 🙁
That’s only in America I assume
Doug: Uploads
Depression rates: Drop to zero
I'm getting one, there really is no better car for the price that has such good handing and brakes from the factory that is UNIQUE. I don't want a Camaro SS, Challenger or Civic Type R (had one already) so the Mini JCW GP is the car for me.
I love this car! Two no-go’s for me though: no backseat, and no manual.
I was going to say - no auto-carwash, no go ... =-P
Kryojenix ditto. It’d be a total buy for me if it had backseats. It would be ultimate run about car but no back seats ahhh I’d just get normal sports car instead
My issue with it is the fact that it's $30k above my price range. And Civic Type R just seems better in nearly every way to me. its practical, same power, manual, reliable, and $10k cheaper.
People who make this car be like: you don't understand, you don't reject this car, the car rejects you
Dont forget, no power seats. Absolutely outrageous.
that “EEHEE” at 22:20 tho
He said that as I read your comment. Lol
Top 10 Doug moment’s
That's his poorly done Michael Jackson impression. Then i paused it at 22:25 LOL! His face!
I love how enthusiastic these car reviews are
I forget this thing exists, no one talks about it when arguing over hot hatches
@Conor Your Golf R does 0-60 in 3.5 seconds? I think you meant half a second faster.
This isn't hatch. It's a mini!
@Conor Still more fun than a Golf R 🤷♂️ 0-60 doesn't make much difference to how good a car is.
@Conor you means by milliseconds faster ? Your golf r is boring since everyone in the world has one.And the quality of a Volkswagen is crap
Because it's expensive and will fall apart like every mini

I laughed way more than I should reading your comment.
@Bob Saget bob, you are a buzzkiller
Bob Saget you do realize that most car enthusiasts couldn’t give a flying crap about reliability, right?
Bob Saget I’m talking in general bud. Virtually every car enthusiast with money will spend it on an “unreliable” BMW, Mercedes, Audi, etc, and not on a slow, boring, reliable Lexus, Acura or Infiniti. If you have the money to buy a nice car, you should have the money to maintain it.
Matt Finestein My 2013 C63 has been very reliable for me. You just have to maintain it like every other machine and it’ll last. Dont listen to Scotty Kilmer.
They did the aerofoils over the wheels, rather than widen the body, because everything JCW does is "bolt on." This means JCW designs all the changes, catalogs all the parts, and sends them to their plant for installation. BMW/Mini doesn't make any changes to the vehicle, prior to the JCW modifications.
Design Center chief to engineer
"Need me to design the turbo
"No"
"Carbon Fiber panels"
"No I need you ro figure out a way so the wing does not hit the antenna"
If I was going to spend $50k on a car. I'd just go get a used Hellcat or C7 vette. Maybe just maybe a Viper, or a Ferrari 360, or a Aston Martin Vantage,
Yeah, but you have to say,
A track day Mini is way cooler than any corvette or Hellcat.
Dusty Dude what about a Ferrari 360? Or a Aston Martin Vantage?
HeavyTanker1945 A used Hellcat or C7 has likely been thrashed to within an inch of its life.
@@penelopeboivin3191 It's not a manual and it is very assisted making it hard to throw around on a track. which kind of defeats the whole point of a fast hatchback. (Fun driving experience)

Can’t believe those wing covers - what were the designers smoking when they thought they were a good idea? 😂😂😂

Get into a fender bender and you're doomed with your "production number" panel thing
And hand washing this car is gonna be a pain with does weird panels.
But I still like it.
You'd be able to buy new panels from Mini as long as you have the VIN. (that's what they've done with previous GP models at least) I can't imagine they'd be cheap though.
Ikr? That's what i was thinking....
MrManBuzz woof yeah I bet 🤑
no problem, just stop in at Home Depot and they will cut up some new plywood panels that your can paint with house paint and put plastic stickers on

Cars in the 80’s had torque steer and turbo lag and I loved them . It took skill and Concentration to drive them smoothly . I would love a quirky Saab 900 Turbo XPG you should review one ,fun cars
Saab 900 turbo with a chip upgrade - front wheel drive mayhem
Those side panels seem like a massive afterthought.
@Andre Roestenberg it's for aero dynamics and it gives the mini nice rally vibes
I don't think it was an afterthought and honestly I really like it. It gives the car a very unique look and fits the styling of the car in general. The fenders are for example as square and unusual as the wheels.
Theo König Looks like a rally hillclimb car. Like it
@@MrNotorius007 exactly
It follows the concept car overfenders.
All the New Minis that have the Auto Transmission also include a Manual Shift Option that you Failed to mention. This can be used to Manually Up or Down Shift using either the Stick Shift or the Paddle Shifters on the Steering Wheel. This Gear Shifting is all done Electrically at your Manual Control without using a Cluch. It is Extremely Responsive and the Driver can Manually Shift the Gears with this Transmission FASTER than a driver could with a Standard Cluch Transmission. You need to make a video about that as many Mini Owners that have had Standard Manual Clutch Transmissions are NOW falling in Love with the New Manual/Auto Transmissions !!!
0:45 Can't wait for the review of Chevrolet's new "subcompact SUV".
Those wheel arch panels look like the temporary packaging that you’re supposed to take off when you get a new washing machine.
Just realized that every car Doug drives likely sells for full MSRP at the dealership. "Yes, this car was driven by Doug Demuro. He has millions of views on youtube and you can see a video of this exact car's cup holders being reviewed in detail on his channel."
Doug- " It's rare that a car has double the power of the base model"
*Laughs in Dodge Demon
philliesphn15 what car doesn't have twice the power for the top model? Doug really had no idea sometimes... Is probably because US markets don't get the sub 200hp models but start with the 300hp v6 as the base model. A 520d has 190hp. M5 has 600.
laughs at Track Hawk
Igor Bobar Still true for the US market, the 528i (our base model) has 240hp (the turbo I4)
I LOVE my Mini Cooper S.
Best bang for the buck for an extremely fun daily driver imo.

The whole lock symbol on the Phob scenario was Hilarious
" should we add a wing?"
mini " YES"
they took it to the next level by adding a wing on top of a wing on top of the car
Not going to lie it is a beautiful mini😭👍
This is 80k in Australia - car prices here never cease to amaze me.
"Didnt have a manual that can handle power and torq".
Pheeeeeleeeezeeeeee
right....so somewhere in the BMW stable they dont have a manual that can manage 300 horse???
Minis are BMW step child, they dont give them enough attention
I called bull as soon as I heard that.
Well it is front drive only, and that brings up challenges that are different than the usual rear wheel drive manuals from bmw
I'm beeping the bullshit horn on that one. Other car companies figured it out, not sure what the problem was here.
“Winghole” is my new favorite insult 😂
that gauge cluster is actually really cool with how it sticks out like that
Mini: "Let's make our fastest and most expensive mini."
Also Mini:"let's cheap out on actual bodywork and slap some panels on the wheel arches."
It also weigh 1255kg. Heavier than a JCW. How do you make a car heavier by removing the back seat?
You are better of buying a regular JCW and put it on a diet.
This is a shit car.

Maybe they're two Crevier employees who've already had a go and already know they secretly don't like a stripped down racer mini that still has silly led lighting round the infotainment screen, and big flat stuck on plastic panels instead of fenders, and the cheap bee sting antenna around which the wing was designed??
Maybe they did not like the car and took it out on Dougs' work instead.
Miata owners from the last video I bet
It's all the single ladies who learned that Doug is married.
I worked at carwashes for 15 years, that car would be fine in MOST modern carwashes. Only carwashes, with "wrap around" brushes, need be avoided. Any car washes with spinning verticle brushes, should be avoided.
Daddy Doug lookin like the *ultimate performer*
You know he is!
True Dat! 🤘
They put the wrong manual option on this car. I want power seats and a manual transmission
lmao *yes*
The round center console guage is extremely well thought out. Every car will have some variant of the idea, in the next 5 years...
I'm a simple Person, I see that Doug uploads a Video, I like.
Me 2 Luca Schaudel.
Wings/spoilers: *exist
Doug: *MASSIVE*
The world needs more May and Demuro.
No friggin way, never thought you'd review this! So happy to see it on this channel. I daily drive a Mini and they're mega fun. As you say and I hear a lot of people describe it, they feel like a Go kart to drive. I love driving it through country lanes and roads here - good fun.. but yeah, needs a manual 100%
Ah me too man! Got an 03 with a supercharger. Which one you got?
@@mizaqenyad4269 Ayy! I drive an O3 one too :D Not a Cooper S / supercharged though
It's a nice spec, racing green and the white spoke wheels. Also has the nice dark interior and not the silver one that a lot have :)
BBROPHOTO hahaha sounds sick man! Mines racing green too, but with black top and wheels, also got the dark interior. I used to own an 09 with the turbo and it was a lil faster, but I had to go back to the supercharged one, so much more fun to drive!
@@mizaqenyad4269 Ahh nice one man! Good minds :D aha I really like the newer black wheels, they're super nice, especially the JCW ones. Although I don't like the new racing green colours they've had over the years, I definitely think the 01- 04 colour is the best racing green they've done!
My GF drives one of the new Minis, they feel pretty damn spicy compared to my one haha. I actually saw one of these GP models today just up the road parked. They look really nice in person and less 'over the top' than I expected.
Has yours had an issues with the oil pump for the supercharger? If my memory is right, the 04 - 06 models all have issues.
@@mizaqenyad4269 On another note, I've found the white 7 spoke (I think) wheels I have to be quite rare. I've only seen one other 03 Mini with them and that happened to be yesterday! hah. Nearly every other I see has the silver wheels.
I'm pretty sure the white and black 7 spoke wheels only came on the pepper and salt optioned cars back then.
$46,000 for a fast roller skate?!
I’d buy a new Lexus for that price.
I would buy a caravan...you can sleep, shower and cook in it😁
Tail lights look cool...I see a bit of the Union Jack.
Why does it even have an antenna? My GTI just has a little sharkfin instead of an antenna, as most newer cars do.
I was wondering the same thing.
Again, it actually has both, have another look.
@@mikevale3620 again, what other car has both?
@@Alex632 to me, as I was looking at what Doug was about to do when he lifted the hatch, I noticed the antennae also had the shark fin built in.
@@mikevale3620 Why though?
