The BMW Mini Coupe celebrates the big five-O this year and looks as sharp as ever. Retaining plenty of elements of the original 1959 design the Mini gets upgraded with some new curves for 2009, the most apparent change being the sweeping windshield and low roof line. Overall the car is less boxy and a lot lower giving it enhanced speed and performance from its predecessors.
