2007 Mini Cooper S
CNET Rating: 9.3 out of 10 Spectacular
Good-looking and one of the most fun cars on the road, the 2007 Mini Cooper S is well-engineered throughout. While we were impressed by the audio and handling, these can be made even better with an optional premium speaker system and a limited slip differential.

Nice, highest rating of the group by a significant margin. However, I have to wonder. They liked the standard auido?

Stand out in a crowd? A crowd of what? Looks about as generic as it could be.

True!! And that's hardly a "range" ($21,200.00 - $21,200.00).

What was their tag line a while ago?? Boxy, but good? I'm sure they're nice cars but... Gimme a MINI.
