I swear the run together word is an original idea, but dang if some other clever MINI owner didn't beat me to it.

Before suspension, wheel and tire mods:

Nice....Zippy.....DecievedByQuickTurnin....Fun

After six thousand dollars of mods:

Flat....Eats10ConeSlaloms4Lunch...Blastdelicious.. ..StillUncompetitive....Go4ARide

Well, the last one may work.

Person asks, "Hey, how's that thing handle?"

I grin from ear to ear and say, "Remember the go-carts you used to drive at the fair?"

Hey Jamie... was nice meeting you at the dragon... first time I've really been filmed before... usually I don't let cameras anywhere near me

I dunno if I included "orgasmic" in with my comments.

I've told people who ask all of the following:

More Fun than should be legally allowed

Like having my own personal roller coaster every day
(yes I saw that you already wrote that Shelly, but I said it first...)

AMAZING!!!

The most fun you can have with your clothes on!!

PERMAGRIN!!!!!

This car has spoiled me; now I won't drive anything else unless I absolutely HAVE to!!

Small, endearing, and FAST (Cooper S with intake)

Even more fun to drive than it is to look at!

Never mind how it looks, go take a test drive!!

WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

I love having a car that makes strangers grin just as much as it makes ME grin!
