46 here. Every car I've had up until now has been a V8 Pony car. The Mini was the only car I could find that gets significantly better gas mileage than my '00 Z28, but is still going to give me the same (or more!) thrill to drive.

Well I'm 11 yrs older then my Mini and it's a 78. You do the math. About the age I rode in my first Mini. Imagine that.

Seriously?
Don't be silly.
I learned to drive shift on a Ford Falcon, 3 on the tree.
My father drank several double martinis that night.

I learned on a '59 Ford P/U, then graduated to a '63 Chevy Van and a '66 Ford Econoline Van. After that, I went to 4-on-the-floor in a '74 Mazda RX-3.
