I found the following in the latest issue (august 6, 2001) of Automotive News. In a short blurb on page 4 titled "define 'publicly'" was the following write up:
"What you drive says a lot about you. That's the focus of a humorous video BMW's Mini team has been showing employees. Mini USA showed the video at a Thursday, Aug. 2, press conference to introduce Mini's new tag line for the United States: "Mini. Let's motor." According to the video: "A Dodge Caravan says, 'I'm on my way to soccer practice'; a (Volkswagen) New Bettle says, 'I'm a 40-year-old woman'; a Ford Focus says, 'I couldn't afford anything better than a Ford Focus'; a Dodge Viper says, 'I have a small ****** organ.' "What about a Mini? It says, "Let's motor," of course. Asked about the Viper comment, Mini spokesman Michael McHale said, "We would never say that publicly."
So that's what the BMW Mini people think about Viper owners, huh?? Not that I really care but those of us who own BMW's might want to think about it. We don't, but we know some of us do....
And what does this mean for Janni, Laura and Nadine???
