I've never been teased about the MINI. Yes, I'm that intimidating.

I know! I had a coworker with an A4 3.0 scoff at me when I told him my car had better handling than his. No one really knows the power of the MINI until they drive it... or are... you know... suddenly behind it.

This may be because I live in a farily upscale area and we really dont have a big "ricer crowd"...but almost everyone I know, guys included, absolutely loves my car. I'm a 19 year old guy with a bright red MCS, and I have never been teased.

Now that I think about it more who CARES whether so and so is faster than us (or not)... our MINIs just LOOK better than anything else out there.

haha ... my very good friend has one and I feel super cramped in it at 6'7"... although its little brother the 300z has a lot more room.

The seats in the G35c feel a bit too bulky and cushy taking up a bit too much room.
