wow.... it cost $32000? i never know they cost that much... i always think they cost like 28,000 or so....

but anyway, nice car. if i remember right, i read a car magazine few years ago and mini rank in the top 10 car (like actual car, not sport car) in handling.

but still... i am a hater of front wheel drive cars... by the way, is your car a manual or automatic?

oic... canadian dollar..... that's why... i just look at the price and us cost like 25000 at most.... i was wrong.... anyway, good choice about the manual, i just don't like to drive AT cars... no fun to drive. plus i don't like force induction on cars (like supercharger and turbocharger).... too much maintainence.

yeah.... those tax and stuff cost a bunch too... i hate that.... add on those price and then you will realized that there is not too much choice out there... that's one of the reason i am looking at used car. well, the main reason is they don't make new good sport cars anymore

To me a pretty immature response for a 28 year old, if you havent learned yet half car people you talk to will like or dislike your car, but thats the great thing about America (and Canada) that there are millions of things to spend your cash on. So if you want to put a 4' wing on the decklid or 30" wheels then by all means do it up but dont let others piss in your cheerios.

Thats almost me.. or a 22 year old with a 3000sqft house in california, 300whp 04 neon (bought new and own slip), 98 eclipse daily driver, and 832 gallons of water in my den and family room (including a 450 gallon) damn all that on enlisted military pay.

Yeah its a srt4, i call it a neon because most people dont know what a srt4 is. the only thing neon on it is head/tail lights, frame and some interior. the turbo is actually pretty small to give you almost instant spool up and its not a sport car. sport compact car yes, as with a lot of other cars which dont come close with power. and with a little money it can beat 40-50k sports cars so im happy with it, the only thing imo it lacks is handeling, a coworker has a mini with some nice coilovers and holy hell that car can take turns. If i owned a mini it would for sure get some suspension, very fun in the twisties but i dont live by to many hill/mountains so im fine with quick strait line/draging.

49lb injectors are overkill so you lose 10 points for trying to brag.

Edit: 22lbs isn't much lol, we have the worlds highest hp evo here in pensacola that pushes over 40psi. .
