Grande Punto: 98.8" wheelbase
R53 Cooper: 97.1" wheelbase
R56 Cooper: 97.1" wheelbase

The R56 is 3.1" longer overall than the R53 at 146.2", but that's still 12" shorter than the Punto Grande... no reason to say the MiTo couldn't be smaller than the Cooper, of course, but excluding the Clubman, the MINI line is still very small.]]>Mar 3rd 2008 9:16AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/

You guys mean a GTA version right? Delta is another car...]]>Mar 3rd 2008 10:15AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/
if it has a better interior design, and how can it not?, then I'm sold. It will be arriving when I'm in the market for my next vehicle. I'll take one with 180hp and a sunroof. ]]>Mar 3rd 2008 9:07AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/
That being said, 2010 is shaping up to be an awesome year for those of us looking for a small, fun car. everything from the Ford Verve/Mazda2 through to this piece of beauty and the Audi A1. ]]>Mar 3rd 2008 9:22AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/03/rendered-speculation-alfa-romeo-mito-could-be-first-true-mini-k/
