What's your favorite thing about your MINI?

I know there's a thread on this in the Gen1 forum, but I want to know what is your absolute favorite thing (you can only pick one) about your MINI?

Since I don't have mine yet, my favorite thing right now is that it's on a boat!

Eager Willingness to Motor

When asked to do so, it willingly motors without hesitation ... especially in third gear ... great!

Driving it. This is the first car I've owned where I make questionable excuses just to go out and drive the car...

It's a car with as much personality as I have!

I can't help myself: I get a s#$%-eating grin at every driving opportunity...which is often, since I, also, make up excuses to drive.

My wife has 36 gallons of milk in the refrigerator. I didn't know milk was the same from state to state... I was just checking.
