Cute, fantastic car

I'm in love with my new Mini. Only difficulty is learning some of the controls. Many things seem complicated. Of course, I hadn't bought a new car in 14 years...... I do think there is a European design to some of the controls. No big deal, I just keep studying the owner's manual. Absolutely thrilled with my Mini, whom I lave named Luna.

Get the Mini

You can't compare this car to the most cars listed for comparison. It handles like a dream, goes where it's pointed, and can embarass cars costing twice as much on the autobahn - all while getting very decent gas mileage.

2012 Mini Convertible

Overall a very good car. The interior is well put together but has to many switches. The mpg is as advertised also.
