Good Handling, Poor Comfort
The 2013 Mini Paceman S is a light and zippy car that is fun to drive down winding country roads but not so comfortable on longer highway drives. It handles incredibly well but this car was not made with comfort in mind. Road noise is not dampened throughout the flooring and suspension is very firm which makes passengers feel bumps and divots in the road. Overall it is a fun car to drive but is not ideal on long road trips.

A Cute, Fun Ride
I love this car but it’s time to move on. This Paceman just runs great all the time, without fancy upgrades or a manual transmission. I’ve taken very good care of it so that it looks practically brand new, barring a few minor chips in the front. Currently using 1-year old summer performance tires but have a set of mounted snow tires for winter.

All weather pocket rocket
While it’s not for everyone, we love our Paceman. Sporty and responsive to drive. It can fit 4 actual adults with the rear bucket seats and it’s all in a nice looking package. The interior isn’t exactly intuitive but before long it’s manageable.
Paceman is awesome!!!
I've had this car two weeks and I love driving it! Zippy, great acceleration, and excellent control. I really enjoy the manual transmission but the automatic is supposed to be good too. Getting in and out of the back seat is only for the nimble, but sitting in the back is actually quite comfortable. They stopped making the Paceman in 2016 so I love that it is now a novelty item. I get why the stopped production since it is a niche concept, but it is perfect for me: no child car seats needed, enough cargo, sporty, AWD, great mpg and I think it looks really cool.

What a safe car
We were re-ended by a Ford Expedition while stopped in traffic, hit at 60 MPH. Our month old Paceman took the lick like a champ, we were bruise and quite sore but the seats collapsed making the the impact less severe on us.So taken by how that experience we immediately bought another. Have taken several 800 mile trips to Florida and the ride is great, excellent around town as well. Love the look and sport select drive through the mountains.
