"Iacono Designs has joined forces with Autocraft of Torrance to develop a very special high-performance version of the Mini Cooper. A total of 100 cars will be built as a signature IACONO series. The Airborne Mini Cooper debuted at the 2006 SEMA show in Las Vegas NV.
The numerous performance enhancements include new cams and cylinder head from Cosworth, header from Blue Flame, and cat-back exhaust from Borla. The 440cc injectors, as well as the Direct Flow intercooler, catch can and blower overdrive pulleys are from M7.
The Wide Body Kit that gives the car its distinctive stance is from Iacono Designs."

What do you guys think?

Wow, what a sexy car, love the black paint and the wheels, better if it was a hardtop though, and the vinyls on it look pretty nice aswell.

Performance is good, quite a little nippy mad car.

It looks hot. Not as hot as me, but hot. The red part of the parint job could've been done a little more retro, as the car looks like something that's supposed to look like something from the 30's. But other than that it's pretty sexy.

reral nice car can't wait to see what will happen when it hits the world stage

ya looks pretty nice with the allblack/ red pain combo .. nice interior too

what do I think?


i think they are morons for calling it airborne and it doesnt even fly.

hmm it looks ok not too bad but not great either and ya why are they calling it airborne

I love the paintjob they;ve done to it, but I never really liked the soft top compared to the hardtop. If they did a hard-top version in that black with, say, a white top, then I'd be very happy.

I love the color combo on this car, black on black with blacked out taillights. If they would have blacked out the headlights too it would have been even more.......say sinister. A hardtop version would be cooler too. The decals look cool too, a black with baby blue decal would look nice as well.

I wanted to see an actual flying in the air Mini. Then a crashing to the ground and burning Mini.

I have no idea why, but I really hate the Mini in general. No amount of aftermarket can help the thing.

Not bad, one of the best modified Minis I've seen in quite a while....

finally, i can see it, i saw the news on a chinese forum, but they didnt give the link...but yay finally i can see it...100 isnt alot when its sold worldwide

i dont know why they hell it was named airborne because it dosent have the wings, those crazy stuff on a plane..

well, i love it, the styling is great, the bodykit looks okay, well its just similar to the normal ones, the colour, great, the black and red thing, looks great, and i love those rims, they are kind of weird, but i dont know why, i just fell in love with them, but i just hate the convertible, its just too small on the outside and too big from the outside at the same time, just cant explain it, though i still prefer a coupe version over this

pretty nice, i like the bhp stat :). 300bhp in a car as light as that... wow, thatll go fast :p.

LOL!

I am loving that paint job!!! I wish my mini was like that! lol I like the interior as well. Looks good.

Maybe it's supposed to be dropped from airplanes like paratroopers. ;)

the star on the side kind of makes it girly. but besides that its decent.

Call me simple minded if you must but I thought that it was a flying Mini :P
It does look good but I want to see a flying Mini. :(

Looks good but 300hp on the front wheels :-k , seems just a lot the only car with more that I can think of is the Autodelta GTA AM
