Clubman roof

Don't know it this tid-bit has been posted yet or not, but did you know that the Clubman roof is the longest produced by BMW?

Some people think that size matters!

Maybe so, but not when it comes to turning a MINI into a Station Wagon.

I like the roof, long or not. I also like the contracting c-pillar very much...the car would lose something if painted body color, imo. Same w/ the roof profile. I do hope folks will give the unique Clubman design features a chance. I suspect it'll look great once we see it in the showroom. By the same token, it is risky to become entrenched in a premature negative bias. That's no fun.
