The Mini Cooper S is a race car out of a box. The chasis is stiffer than a BMW M3; the suspension are responsive; braking system are good; the looks turn heads; the exhaust makes a low sound like a true race car;

Love it, but not the maintenance expense

I love my MINI, it's quick, responsive and fun to drive. But I've had to replace one run-flat tire for every year I've owned it - 200-500/tire. Add that to the three times I've had to replace parts for the window, the consistent rattling noises, and a guy wire in the door that pops off so I can't easily open the driver side door - I've spent more money on my Mini in the past four years than I ever did on my first car - a Honda Civic SI. You WILL be paying BMW prices for labor and parts. The allure of the initial price tag of the Mini (substantially lower than a BMW) is overshadowed by the maintenence costs - with alll the electrical problems of a BMW to boot.
Why did I even bother with this car?

It was a nice car at first, but then everything started to go wrong. In ten months I've spent $2000 in repairs (half of which should have been covered under warranty), and I'm about to spend more to fix the faulty brakes. The car eats through tires, the oem windshield is too thin and fragile, and the brakes have never been properly functional, and all the problems the car has, isn't covered by any warranty...

Very very sharp handling car (for stock). Exceptional Style has nothing to compare with... Very noise when you are about 65MPH interior, heavy power steeling and clutch. Lots of issues for electronics. Went to dealer for 8 times for windows, center console, DSC... Very costy for change the OEM run flats
