  • TRY ONE ! - 2004 Mini Cooper
    By -

    Ive been in the automobile business since the early 70s. I was a Mercedes technician, sold them for 10 years, sold Porsche, Audi and Lexus as well. Over the years I have driven some fine automobiles, to be sure. But I must admit I was AMAZED when I drove the Mini. I started out driving the base model with a 5 speed manual and was thoroughly impressed. Next I drove the supercharged S model with a 6 speed. Again, an amazing experience. I opted for the S. Let it suffice to say, its AWESOME. A supercharged asphalt magnet. I HIGHLY recommend PRESTIGE MINI in MAHWAH,N.J. to anyone looking for a truly TOP NOTCH DEALERSHIP

    definitly as fun to drive as it looks. feels much larger on the inside than it appears to be. but, if you dont like attention, the mini is not for you.

    Terrfic little car, good on gas, has all the extras that a luxury car has, and it is great to find and get parking spaces.

    I bought a Mini with CVT. It has enough power for San Francisco conditions. It will easily do high speeds on the freeway. My car was jerky with the CVT at first, but a change in the chip due to California emissions stopped it. The sun visors are worthless, too short when put to the side and block too much vision straight ahead. The Harmon Kardon stereo is sometimes distorted and not worth the money. I have had no problems with the sunroof yet, the mesh filter seems ok in the hot sun. My car hasnt been back to the dealer for any problems except the rear hatch is hard to close tight. It is hard to get appointments at some dealers, others are better. I did not notice any major build defects when my car was new.

  • 6"4 and still have room - 2004 Mini Cooper
    By -

    The Cooper S is a perfect commuter car. Im 6"4, and can still put the seat back another 2 inches. I have a 34 inseam, for those of you who thought I might have short legs. The car is a pleasure to drive. After driving a 87 BMW 325 for 16 years, I expect the car to be reliable. I love the way it handles. The reviews are much to hard on the cars steering. There is no play in the wheel, the way things should be made. Just like the BMW, the battery is in the rear, with a connection in the front should you need it. Steering, braking, and acceleration are all very good. This car is a blast!

    The Mini-S is one well designed piece of machinery. Coupling the awesome handling capabilities of the original Mini with modern aesthetics and innovations MINI has created a rare breed indeed. This car feels at home anywhere. The small size makes getting around congested areas a breeze. The ride and seat design doesnt wear you out on those long distance voyages, though the car is really at home on the curvy roads through hills and mountains.

    Best all around bang for your buck under 25k. Fun to drive, sporty, fast. Excellent dealership in the Orlando FL. Cant say enough good things about this car.

  • I love this car - 2004 Mini Cooper
    By -

    This is my first new car, ever, and I cant believe I waited until I was 41 to buy one. The MINI is cool - handles great, looks cute, very comfortable on the inside, and much roomier than you think. It is very peppy, and you cant beat that BMW engine.
