1) Ford Focus? Yeah, we've got them here as well, but there's no way that's the "econobox" version of the Mustang (and the Mustang is a GT, not a sportscar
).
2) Mini is owned by BMW, but is not a BMW. BMW even claims there are reasons why they don't do front-wheel drive
That's BMW corporate's take on it, not mine. (There's an entire thread dedicated to that topic as well
, BTW).
