Looks naturally aspirated, but I'm sure the mini is light as hell so it flies.

I think MINI has engine in the rear in stock, right?

Damn, this MINI should fly like a bullet.

no, the mini has always been front wheel drive with the engine and transmission sharing their oil in the nose. Technically the first use of a transverse front wheel drive setup, but it is still not the same as in your tiburon.

I used to have a 63 Mini.

You are thinking of the Fiat/Seat 500, 600, and 850s. Those are rear engined, rear drive.
