Makes me smile, but rough ride.

I pined for a Mini Hardtop for months before buying one. The performance is amazing for a tiny 3 cylinder engine. Lots of leg roof for this 6'1" 240 lb man. The back seat is worthless & might as well not be there. Storage is surprisingly good via the hatch primarily. Access to the back from the doors is difficult unless you're a gymnist. The ride is rough. Passengers don't enjoy it but the driver sure does! It corners like a dream. Need sticky tires because it's light. I replaced the run-flats immediately with full size tires. No regrets.

The car that drove me to the new world.

I had 2015 Mini Hardtop Cooper S and it was my first car. At first, I bought this car because of the exterior and interior design. It looked very cute and it made me to buy it. When I was driving Mini for first few weeks, I didn't feel any special maybe because I was getting know about the car. (Also I was new driver.) One day, I drove Mini with full gas on the highway in the night and I could feel every mph through my body. Mini was giving me that feeling. I wasn't driving really fast, but Mini still gave me full of joy. And I sold Mini a year later because of my back problem, then I got Mercedes-benz C 300. It was a great car but it didn't give me any fun or the attraction from the car. So I decided to sell C 300 and now I am driving BMW 428i. I chose BMW just because I can't forget the fun that Mini has given to me. Mini, my first car led me to the new world and taught me that fun doesn't need high speed or high spec.

Love This Car!!!

This has been the best commuter car I have ever had. Not only does it get 39mpg city and highway but it has been a blast to drive.

Most fun on four wheels

I took quite a bit of time to research and test-drive this vehicle as it has been eleven years since I had bought a new car. The entire experience was really fun and I was treated very well by the dealership and especially by my salesman.

Reliable, quick and easy to drive

I recently purchased my Mini Hardtop S and couldn?t be happier with the quality of the vehicle. It hugs the road and is packed with power. Even in sport mode, I?ve averaged 32 MPG on the highway already and only have 300 miles on the vehicle. There is plenty of power in Mid driving mode and Green is great for cruising along the highway. If you?re looking for a compact, sporty, fuel efficient car, this is the one! For a smaller car, there is plenty of storage.
