Nice forum you have here! I'm shopping real hard right for a special mini. But then again, I could suddenly find myself in a 10 year old CLK55 AMG cabrio or a Mazdaspeed3. All I know is, I'm pre approved and really excited about some of the mini's I'm seeing and driving. I gave up on BMW Z4's, kinda rough ride, and lack of rear seats for our two dogs. Have had a Miata (too small) and G35 (too big) recently.

 

My 80 lb Blue heeler/Golden retriever pup wishes to recommend the Cooper, FYI.

Cheers,

Charlie
