MINI Coupe & Roadster Production Date Set For October 2010

Remember the MINI Coupe and Roadster Concept which debuted at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show? They may be called concepts but BMW chairman Dr. Norbert Reithofer had already made known that both cars will head for production. It was a question of when. And now, a leaked BMW production schedule has the answer: as early as October 2010. The document also says that both cars will enter pre-production phase next month.

MINI Coupe and Roadster could hit European shores in late 2010, the U.S. sometime in early 2011, before making their way to other countries. Since Malaysia is too often an afterthought, don't be too surprised if you only see them in 2012.
