Thanks Jack I had not got over there yet to see what was New. So it sounds like the Prince is here to stay.
If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

Bummer! I was hoping for the N20 in a MINI application.

Honestly I'm surprised they aren't pushing the HP numbers up further to keep up with market trends for hot hatches.  Although I'm reminded on days like today that more horsepower/torque isn't necessarily a good thing as it's the time of year where I feel like I have to drive with an egg between my foot and the gas pedal.

LOL!  You are correct about the egg between foot and gas pedal.

Yes, I too am glad that the Prince engine will not be abandoned!
I wish there was a local MINI Dealership, like our Honda, Subaru, Mazada and VW.
