Hi all....
I found this and was floored......
Very odd how everyone gave the MINI a perfect score but about 5.

I would say either they are full of something..... or they went in to the purchase with out a clue of what they were buying.

Any thoughts???

Hmm it is interesting the contrast in the messages. The only thing I can think of is they could be entered by other car companies to make the car sound worse than it is. I have read every review possible by motoring journo's and all of them have been excellent, especially performance wise.

How could you give it a 1 for performance !

I guess those people are just missing out - which is fine. I'll just get moved up on the waiting list!

The folks that wrote the negative remarks might be ficticious indeed. I have waited over two years for this car. It is so hard to find anything dis-appointing about the mini. Maybe real cup holders, or a little larger rear view mirror. But, the trade off is you have the coolest car on the road (some trade off!!) Has anyone looked inside a p.t. cruiser? BORING inside ain't it. The original mini was never a gadget type, look at me car. The new mini is definetly a MINI for 2002.Lets all make sure to post our reviews on that site and bring the ratings up.
LOVE THIS CAR!!
MOTOR ON!!

opinions just like bellybuttons...everyone has one, but few are the same. I just feel sorry that these poor missguided individuals think they are right ops: They probably ran right out to buy another SUV to soothe them after such a tramatic experiance Jeavees another barrel of Crude... chop chop

I don't believe it. I think it's the same knucklehead posting bad reviews. The odds that there will be a vast majority of mid to high nines and a few tens legitimately coupled with ratings of one or two point somethings are highly unlikely. If he had any brains he'd have thrown a couple of fives in there to make it believable. I agree about the trolls. What a pathetic way to spend one's time . Loser.

No worries. It'll get drowned out when all the real MINI owners chime in.
