Overview & Reviews

BMW subsidiary, Mini, resurrects an unforgettable old favorite with the release of the 2002 Mini Cooper. Available with either a 115-horsepower four-cylinder or a supercharged version of that engine worthy of 163 hp, the pint-sized but glamorous three-door hatchback features BMW-engineered suspension and steering and a base MSRP under 17 grand. Whether you're a 40-something hoping to relive earlier days, an autocross enthusiast or just the mild-mannered next-door neighbor, we expect that you'll run to the nearest BMW dealership in search of this coveted bundle of joy.

• Questionable interior ergonomics, limited first-year supply.

  Like a supercharged go-cart on rails - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By Tim C - August 19 - 2:00 am

  Got the car in August. Wow! Great styling, great handling, and an increadible head turner. My 16 year old car-fanatic of a son had been after me to get the Cooper S and he was right on. People stop me getting in and out of the car. They pull up along side me (on two lane roads) to chat about the car. I get smiles and the thumbs up whereever I go. And again going their is a gas. The bigest problem is that there arent enough winding roads to let it loose on....

  MINI not so MINI - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By Porsche91108 - August 13 - 2:00 am

  i love the MINI, i think it is the best car out there for the money. There is so much room inside compared to what it looks like on the outside and the interior design is awesome. As for the exterior, i still have people look at the car when i drive by. It is so cool and fun to drive that i would recommend it to anyone. AWESOME CAR!!!

  Luv my MINI - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By Beth G. - June 1 - 10:00 am

  If you dont like to be stared at, this isnt the car for you. No matter where we go, we are stopped. Everywhere!! We are having so much fun customizing our MINI with a dash- mounted televison, DVD player, and white bonnet stripes.

  My 2002 Cooper s - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By bikerbilly - May 19 - 2:00 am

  I motored 8000 miles in 90 days. Its fun to drive and as close to a MG1100 on steroids as you can get. I wouldnt comapare it with a 65 mini for acceleration but it does handle. Great on ice and snow as well as dry road.

  Im get a 2nd! - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By Miniowner - April 25 - 10:00 am

  Ive got about 2,000 miles on mine now - I have nothing but praise. Hi-way driving for extended trips is not what this car is about - but boy the daily commute is fantastic! I sold my Mustang Cobra for this little guy - no regrets! Im now going back for an "S" - my wife equally excited. How great!

  Big Kids Go Cart - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By Nextboat - April 16 - 11:50 am

  I used to own a 1967 MINI Coooper S. It was great fun, but unreliable, and in the shop constantly. The new MINI Cooper S is everything I could have wanted back then, and more. Handling, Safety, creature comforts, and feels better at 100 miles an hour than most cars. We use this car to move theings when we cant use our 5 series BMW, because we can fit more in with the seats folded down. This is a great car.

  Mini Mania - 2002 Mini Cooper
  By dsmatl - April 16 - 10:00 am

  I bought my Mini used, only 11,000 miles, as a gas miser. Ive only had it a couple of months, but now I cant stand to drive any of our other vehicles. Its June in Atlanta and Im still driving without the A/C: its just so darn FUN! I still have one years worth of bumper-to-bumper manufacturers warranty (exc. tires). My windshield is cracked, but not unsafe; its been backordered for 6 weeks so far.
