Charlie Schlieve bought his 2008 Mini Cooper S more than a year and a half ago. Noticing that there weren't many modified Minis in his area, he chose the Cooper S as a platform because it was so different. With some help from his dad, Schlieve has modified the car inside and out to fit his style and personality.
