"By contrast, the Mini's scattered toggles are trendy, chic and not particularly functional. To my eye, its door panels and dash are overly goo-gaw."


I am about to get in my goo gaw MINI now.

Nope, Sport button on the R56 changes the throttle response and the sensitivity of the power steering assist.
