Well as far as the Cooper S or MX-5 are concerned that makes 2 of us. Maybe we need to set up a girly outing
Your a girl
I'm guessing this naive individual has ever driven a Mini Cooper S. Driving a Cooper S is simply mind blowing, the trill you feel when you touch the accelerator. From a Mini One right up to a Cooper S the handling on a Mini is second to none, the weight to power ratio is.
Mini's rule!!!!!
I agree that it's fast and it's a good car but I think you are overselling it a bit. Take a spin in an M3 and let us know how the Cooper S shapes up then.
or the ultimate .... StreetKa ( think they're gone now are they ?) The name always makes me think of Marlon Brando tho

I am also one of the girls that know's what she is talkin bout when it comes to cars, when i was buyin my celica the sales guy totally ignored me and directed everything at my boyfriend even after us mentioning twice the car was for me not him..
i'm now driving a mini cooper and its one of the best cars around, have to say tho i hate to see a guy driving them, i can understand why they do but they are quite a girly car in my opinion

Wasnt refering to drivability purely looks, i,m sure it flies like s**t off
a shovel but it;s girls car end of story............................
I've driven a M3 and M5 but you get me a year old one of them for less than €30,000. Prices for those cars are 100k+. The Cooper S is the best car in it's class and anything up to a RX 8. Oh and power ratio on a JCW S is better than an M3
Hey well a 'girls' car like the Mini Cooper keeps if value better than anything else out there!

Defo. I know flip all about cars really, and even I know it's a woman's car. I can't remember the last time I saw a man driving one ...
Yep, it's a really, really, really, really, really good 'girls car'.
The fact that's it's front wheel drive goes against it as well. BMW's, the RX8 score higher because they are rear wheel drive. The MX5, while slower, is more fun to drive.
Yeah, but the golf is a chicks car now.
