Nice try, but no cigar. They don't look that much alike.

I don't much of a resemblance either. They all have white tops and four tires, but that's about it.

brn and steve are stupid as stumps. They all have white roofs. That's the joke. That's it. Was it really that difficult to figure out? This morning you jugs must have been confused by your own breakfast cereal.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

You know it's not funny when you have to explain it.

I'm glad themechanic1 feels the need to resort to personal insults for his or her kicks.

Good grief people, they don't all look exactly alike but they all have similar silhouettes. The white roof is very distinctive detail that you just can't ignore. I like the Flex and the mini. But I dislike the overwrought faux military styling of the FJ for the same reason I don't like the H2 or H3.

How dare you drag the MINI down by comparing it with the Flex and FJ! Blasphemy.

btw not all MINI's have the white roof. Mine is red body red roof.
