#11 of 14 Gotta love MINI by zephyr_7 Jan 31, 2007 (9:25 pm)
Im fully looking forward to getting in the seat of a new 2007 MINI COOPER S, and because of Mini's excelent trade in value, my 2005 is worth almost as much as I paid for it. Therefore I can get a new Mini relativily cheap. I love the interior, and guess what guys now I will be able to actually use the cup holders for drinks, how exciting. The exterior still needs to grow on me a little. But overall im buying a new one the day it comes out on the market.

I don't have a Mini, but I think it's great to see an injection of style into this whole segment of the market. I was thinking BMW 3 coupe again (had an 02), but the Cooper S is tempting.
#13 of 14 The truth about Mini S by wickedlygood Oct 29, 2007 (5:28 pm)
To all of you whom it may concern....that are obviously no- Mini owners: I have my Second Mini S model and I will probably neverwant another car again over a Mini! These cars are in the least...AMAZING FEATS OF AUTOMOBILE AND PERFORMANCE ENGINEERING! My Mini S is fully loaded with the Cooper werks as well has Alta intake system,etc... There isnothing short of a Lamborghini that will even remotely keep up with me on the free ways and this comes from someone whom has owned a plethora of Porsches, Mercedes, Beamers, and yes a Lambo! For all of you ummmm rice burners with the big exhaust pipes and no engine lol please put your money where your mouth is because I will anyday to simply show you what the finish line looks like from 2nd or third place. I have 10 grand cash if you can beat my mini with your lil SI or Mazda, or S2000

Replying to: jjohnw (Jan 28, 2007 12:42 pm) Hi John: I got the same exact car as you got (2007 mini cooper S pepper white 6-speed) and could not be happier. I agree with you 100% that this is a "fun" car and should not replace cars that are more practical. I just placed an order for a 2009 subaru forester which would be our practical car (awd,lots of room,good mpg, slow as hell). As far as fun cars go, its very hard to beat the mini cooper S. Speed is not everything. I could have easily bought a vette but would not have the stupid grin on my face after driving it like I do with the mini cooper.
