The luxury runabout is officially called the Mini Inspired by Goodwood, Goodwood being the home of Rolls-Royce's factory. Mini only manufactured 1000 of these Special Edition units and only imported 140 units to the US. It's a Mini Cooper S underneath with the Cooper S's turbo 4, but with Rolls Royce-specific detailing inside and out. The rest of the monochromatic exterior's trimmings are equally as modest, with some normally optional chrome and "Inspired by Goodwood" fender plaques being the only attention-getting add-ons. Even the 17-inch wheels are standard Mini catalog parts. Rolls-Royce Diamond Black metallic paint is standard. You'll more clearly see the Goodwood Rolls Royce inspiration inside. Rolls designers helped choose the trim and coloring--they call the leather hue Cornsilk--and the walnut pieces are shaped at Rolls-Royce's Goodwood facility. A stitched black-leather upper dash gives it that Rolls Royce look. Records from the factory show that this vehicle is Build #146 of only 1000 that were built. Badge as in Image goes with the vehicle. A collector's item for the future. Few details were overlooked. A Rolls-like woven headliner has been fitted, as have lamb's-wool floor mats. The doors and center console are covered in leather. The speedo and tachometer faces have been swapped for versions with Rolls-Royce's font. Many of the controls get a gloss-black finish, including the steering-wheel spokes. You can think of the Mini Inspired by Goodwood as the smallest Rolls-Royce available. A six-speed automatic transmission manages the brisk driving habits of this Mini Cooper / Rolls Royce / Go-Cart. Standard equipment include adaptive Xenon headlights, automatic climate control, a Harman/Kardon sound system, and rear parking sensors.
