Has Your Car's Value Changed?
Used car values are constantly changing. Edmunds lets you track your vehicle's value over time so you can decide when to sell or trade in.
It's amazing, but...
I found that if I really drive it like a sports car, the city gas mileage drops down to the 12-15mpg range! Drive it like your grandma and maybe you can get 25mpg. The leather is really cheap quality. After 3 months it is already creasing and showing signs of wear. Other than that it is definately a fun car, very safe and performs well. Be aware the service is done by BMW and that can lead to some frustration.

Great car, doesn't feel like a little car from the inside.

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...
Mini Cooper S
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
fun, fun , fun!
I bought an "S" model loaded for just $20,900, tax free. Great looks, draws lots of attention. Interior design is gorgeous, fit and finisf are great, but some plastics look too cheap. Engine is weak in the low range, but once you pass 4000rpms, then you get all the power. It reminds me of my Civic VTEC. ( and this is weird for a supercharged engine, though). Anyways, the car drives like a go-kart, and that is the main reason why I bought it. Ride is harsh, but not as I expected. Got it in silver with a black top. This will be in the future my second car. I'm already saving for a 350Z.
