My sister is looking at getting a different car so while we were at Car Max she made me test drive a mini. I have to say after all I have heard I was prepared to be floored, but it was meh. kindasad.gif My Celi is dire need of and engine swap (242k org. engine, 4th gear syncros bad), but to be honest I like it more. The Mini was so much smoother and all, but it felt like it had no soul. Anyone else find this driving other cars? Only one I have liked more than the Celi was an 86 MR2.

just yesterday, this really hot girl in a mini S decided to have some fun with me on the highway. i pulled a good car length on her and kept pulling, but i was really surprised that the mini kind of hung in there. that little car had some balls to it (but the 3s took care of that biggrin.gif ).



wouldnt this be considered street racing?
i thought we were not allowed to talk about street racing on the boards...
