Default '07 Mini Cooper S

i drove one today all day, really nice inside, good mpg, too bad is was an auto, but i still ripped some corners on the tiptron.

172hp and 177tq, its pretty damn fun, im thinking about trading my caddilacc on one of them.

what your opinion on these cars?

They're not for me, but they're cool little cars. And I like that there are almost no two alike. Some of them are decked out kinda wild.

I think they are the best looking fwd cars evar!!! The best thing about them is that you can customize them in the little details, plus the interior is just plain sick!! And they can handle!!

The new Cooper S with turboed engines are no go for me.
The engines come from Peugeot, a french car manufacturer, they use the same engine in the Peugeot 207 RC.

And I realy don't like french things, I have to ask my brother again....I think he told me the 07 Cooper S is slower than the supercharged one.
Not sure, have to ask again.

I like them, the older ones are better IMO. But I would still much rather own one of these:

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.
