Looks like at least one British car tester likes the MiTo. If it out-performs a Mini, is priced a little less than the Mini, and most important of all is built at least as well as the Mini, they won't be able to make them fast enough to meet US demand. If they bring them over here, that is.
Maybe not so much with the sales. If one's in the market for a Mini-like vehicle, they've already purchased a Mini. So these would be going for those that have run the Mini into the ground or who're new to the market.
Not saying it won't sell well, but I'm not convinced at the size of the market.
