For anyone who may be interested, Brookstone carries a remote control MINI Cooper convertible in British racing green, lightning blue, liquid yellow, or chili red. It's 1:43 full function remote control, with a "turbo" button. There's a Brookstone at Eastview mall in Victor, or you can order online (but don't have a choice of colors if you order online). So when you're not driving your real size MINI, you can be racing them around your house (or chasing after your cats, like I do).

They love it. They'll run up to the car to try and smack it, and then I will chase them with it. We all have fun.
I forgot to mention that the price is $25, and it has working headlights.

Oh, and VeganBrian, you can play with the toy version until your real one comes in! It should help to placate your emotions a bit.

Brookstone is an electronics store. I know there's one at Eastview mall in Victor, and there is one in the Walden Galleria in Buffalo. You can also order online from the Brookstone website.
