Mini Cooper S vs Audi A1 Sport

Sitting here in Perth Australia visiting my daughter and her family picked up a Australian auto newspaper comparing the two. Final score Audi four stars MCS three and one half stars. They liked the Audi more than the MCS in every category except value. I disagree, the Audi is just plain ugly. Anyone know if it's going to be offered in the states ?

Allegedly we may see it sometime in 2012-2013, but who knows. Also talk of MB bringing over the A-Class. Knowing the way the VW group is moving toward aggressive sales figures, I wouldn't be surprised to see it here.

I'd take another Audi any day of the week over the Mini. My S4 was an incredible car for the money, and was hands down above and beyond the quality of the Mini. The Mini feels like a toy that's waiting to fall apart. Audis are very nice. Don't get me wrong, I love my Mini, but there is no comparison between these 2 auto companies!
