MINImino: Pioneer custom pickup for tuner show

You'll find Pioneer sound systems in vehicles of all shapes and sizes, but this is something entirely different. To garner some attention and demonstrate its latest multimedia equipment, Pioneer has created a one-of-a-kind MINI pick-up in pure Cooper-mino style.

The vehicle, as you can see, is all decked out in chocolate brown and white. Pioneer started with a MINI Cabrio and fitted a unique, miniscule, covered cargo bed to house all the electronics and blend in with the custom white roof – because what would a custom MINI be without a white roof – with a surfboard mounted atop. 18" powder-coated white wheels complement the accents, held on with a Spax sport suspension that drops the ride height by 60mm. MS Design helped round out the look with an aero kit, and there's a Remus center-exit exhaust out back. Inside, Pioneer has fitted all its latest equipment, including two optical drives, 3 subwoofers, four amplifiers and a whole mess of speakers we couldn't even count. Of course it's iPod-compatible, and the show car has a Nano mounted front and center atop the white center stack. Brown and white Recaro racing buckets and steering wheel round out the interior of this very unique MINI with an assuredly mega sound, which Pioneer will be demonstrating in a few days at the Paris Tuning Show.
