What is red, black and gets 30-40mpg? 40+ if drafting?
What might turn around at the top of the driveway (untested)?
What can feel like a go-cart, but rides like a much nicer car?
What has all kinds of gadgets like multiple color LED mood lighting
and a speedometer/radio/status-display/?/? the size of a dinner plate?
The red and black Mini Cooper
we bought in Atlanta yesterday...
We took a ride in the "S" model, which was a thrill, but it was a potential liability in my hands. The base model we got is still very peppy and a little more practical.

Cool car and from what I can tell they don't depreciate.
Would I fit in one?

They have an amazing amount of room, and it's easier to get in and out of than most cars. Yes, I think you'd fit.

Congrats, they're awesome little cars.
I test drove one and fit in it quite well, my wife at the time was 5'0" and I'm a between 6'2" and 6'4", depending on which convenience store I'm leaving. (shamelessly stolen from Ron White)
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
