I see their commercials on TV all the time.

i have not, are these fake minis real looking?!

Not at all. They have like huge Oldsmobiles and Cadillacs with bonnet stipes on them. And they show a real Mini and a fake one racing through a slolom course, and of course the real Mini whoops some ass. Whenever I watch the commercials though, I always get the feeling that the whole thing is sort of a joke because of how incredibly unlike Minis the fake ones look.
