@mmarsh1972 I live in France and went to my dealer. First of all its not real automatic but a robotized semi automatic. You can leave it in auto mode OR you can shift it using paddles on each side of the wheel. There is no clutch pedal. Citroen is taking orders BUT they are not making deliveries until Feb 2012. Regrettably, the robotic gearbox version is expensive, I got a quote at 21000 Euros (I can get a GOLF VW or a used Peogeot 3008 for less) so I am hesitant unless I can get a good deal.

@Kia0Rio True... If Mini's are imported in the US, you won't have problems with the engine :)

@VaccinesKillBabies In France 90% of the cars are manual, but an auto version is coming out Q4 2011

@VaccinesKillBabies Not anymore, my Citroen dealer says AUTO version comes out in France in October 2011, should be about 18,000 Euros.
