RE: Re: German Magazine called "Der Spiegel"



<x-flowed>weird.
I just got this today...

ANYWAY!
I thought it was a 3L Lupo, ya know... like a 2.8L Audi A4?

I thought 3L was the motor!  Here's me scratching my head saying' HOW THE

I think its cute. I'll take one of those Lupo cup cars anyday.  Then again, 
I think the Mini is an incredable car, too...
