I agree it's a great driver's car. I drove the wheels off one at about 4 am in NYC one night. That thing moves. Although I spoke to a Mini Specialist in Florida and he all but talked me out of buying one for my mum which would have to be an automatic. The transmission is pure garbage he said. Too bad it would have been nice. And he had nothing good to say about the Mini aftermaket parts world as well.
