Wondering what you feel about your mini experience. My wife wants one in a bad way, and I think they are pretty cool too. Any good, bad or whatever experiences would be appreciated. thanks

There was a thread a while back comparing the MINI S to the S2000. It didn't last long. Myself and a couple of other members who own both contributed. To answer your question: get your wife whatever she wants...it's just easier.

I thought the movie "The Italian Job" (btw thoght it was great) was an 3 hour ad for the Mini.

My sister bought a silver Mini S last year, I drove it to Ralph's and back when I went to visit her. It's cute but not as 'zippy' as it looks. I would have grown bored of it after a week. She loves it, though.

Her hubby just got an H2. The vehicles look pretty humorous next to each other in the garage.
