Plug-In Bull Dog

Posted on April 15th, 2009 • Filed under mediarosa • No Comments

I made a visit to the New York Auto Show yesterday which was less than exciting. I’m not really a big fan of cars but there were two on display that caught my eye. One being the new Mini Cooper plug-in electric that will be available in May or June of this year. I love Mini’s. So cute.

Electrics and hybrids are a big deal at the auto show this year…lulz. And of course the stickers on a number of American cars that announced Wifi installed were prevalent. That was worth a chuckle.

But the other thing that caught my eye looked like it was emulating WWII aircraft complete with rivets, brushed steel, and leather and buckle hood straps. The coolest Scion ever.
