Replying to: m4x (Aug 24, 2009 1:48 pm) I'm pretty confused here. You posted in a C30 vs MINI discussion, typed C30 in your post heading, yet you never even drove one? Not much of a comparison. Replies to this message: m4x (Sep 01, 2009 12:54 pm)

Replying to: qbrozen (Aug 24, 2009 5:38 pm) Well, don't be confuse then. Was a mistake putting it there but I did plan to test it. Read the thread, they were talking about the Yaris and the Mini at some point. And since I drove both, I gave my 2 cents. I will not drive 50 miles just to get to test drive the C30. And just more FYI, I forgot to mention VW GTI. Took this for 3-4 mile sprint. It's fast and agile, has the best front seats but stereo is so 1998 and it's overall finish seems like it's not VW.
