Despite being 33 years old, I\u2019m still wildly immature and I\u2019m perfectly aware of it. I\u2019m not always proud of it but I can\u2019t help what makes me laugh, ya know? Which is why I\u2019m here to admit that my first thought upon seeing this next-gen MINI Cooper<\/a> S doing some hot laps around the N\u00fcrburgring was that its single, center-mounted exhaust pipe looks like a butthole. (We don\u2019t own the spy photos but they can be seen here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

In some recent spy photos, the MINI Cooper S was seen lapping the \u2018Ring while wearing MINI\u2019s now-signature yellow camouflage. Since all MINI hatchbacks look the same, you\u2019d be forgiven for not realizing which MINI it was. However, there are a few things that give its \u2018S\u2019 nature away. One of which is the wheel design. This specific test car sports some snazzy shoes that don\u2019t look like they belong to a base model MINI. The other is its roof spoiler, which looks almost MINI GP-like. So it\u2019s clearly a sportier model.<\/p>\n

We admittedly don\u2019t need to be looking into its camouflaged design too much, as MINI already revealed the electric Cooper SE<\/a> and it looks rather good. Interestingly, this test mule has different taillights than the fully-revealed electric car we saw. So either the electric one will have different taillights or MINI made fake ones for this test mule. However, this is the first time we\u2019re seeing the poo-shoot exhaust design for the Cooper S and it\u2019s just funny.<\/p>\n
