Just got my Mini Cooper. One of the first, if not the first one, in Portland, OR. It is a blast to drive, really sticks to the corners. It is a real head-turner. Loving every minute of it! It really is recognizable as a mini, even though no one seems to remember the original. Everywhere I go, I have to inform people of the history of the car... but that is ok... It is part of the fun of owning the car.

Wow, what a fun car! I've had my MINI Cooper for about a month now and I couldn't be happier. The handling is extraordinary, the performace excellent, it's absolutely gorgeous inside and out and it's the most comfortable car I've ever driven. Those that complain about lack of horsepower should learn to drive - with proper technique this car goes like a bat out of Hell! But where it really shines is in the twisties - no car can match the Cooper's handling through corners at speed. What more can I say... I love it!

Excellent performance for the small vehicle with supercharged engine. Definitely fun to drive and at present some exclusivity. The most talked about car I have ever owned.

42 mpg on the highway last weekend! Whoo hoo! This little car delivers: fun to drive, economical on gas and overall price, and a babe magnet (both sexes). I have such a great time driving my MINI, I just can't stop smiling. When I park my car, usually there's somebody asking me questions and when I return to the car often it has attracted a crowd of admirers.
