Mini and Maxi
I finally took some pics of my two black rides today. They're both a BLAST to drive! The striped one is just a little faster.

Nice! When I first saw the title of the thread I thought you and I were in the same situation. I drive the MINI (one of the smallest cars made) and my wife drives a MAXIma (one of the largest cars made).

WHAT? There are many, many, many larger cars in current production. For instance the Ford Taurus is about a full foot longer than the Maxima. A Bentley Arnage is almost 3' longer.

Hehe. Ok let me re-phrase that.
One of the largest cars made that I can afford the Taurus not withstanding.

All ya gotta do is put stripes on the Mini and it'll be at least as fast as the other one.
Just won't do donuts as good 'cos of the FWD.

Quite a lineup. Which one would you select for a cross country trip?

I know what a Maxi was, it was our family car after the Mini, from '69 to sometime in the late 70s.
