The Seat Mii isn't necessarily the coolest car on the planet, but any time a car company does something to help out an important cause, we can't help but notice. The Mii Miinx began its life as a normal old Deep Black Metallic Mii Sport, but in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness month, a Seat dealership chose to make it into a one-off show car.
After pulling this Mii Sport and its 75 PS (74-horsepower), 1.0-liter engine off of the showroom floor of Dales Seat in Cornwall, it was wrapped boot to bonnet in a gloss-pink vinyl wrap. To help add a little more of a custom look to this otherwise bone-stock Mii, the folks at Dales Seat tinted the headlights.
This Seat Mii Miinx comes relatively well-equipped, featuring: 15-inch alloy wheels, air conditioning, leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear shift, tinted rear windows, fog lamps, and a sports suspension.
The base Mii Sport goes for 11,500 ($18,298 at the current exchange rates), but, as you can tell, this is no normal Mii Sport. There are no immediate plans to sell the Mii Miinx, but Dales Seat has received numerous offers via Twitter and telephone. We're sure the car will eventually be sold off to some lucky buyer for a good bit more than its base price.
In the meantime, Dales Seat will be donating 100 ($159 at current exchange rates) to Breakthrough Breast Cancer charity for every Mii it sells. Even if you can't pick up the Mii Miinx, you can still snag up a Mii and have a portion of its profits go to a great cause.
