Who cares about track times…the only important thing is whether or not a car is good to drive on normal roads.

Bet the 123d m-sport will destroy this on the track. This one is expensive just cos it has an open roof and a funky exterior/interior.

Nice if not expensive fashion accessory.

$56k is a lot but they sell for that… the eastern suburbs/double bay crowd love that stuff… they have good resale too… you say there’s not enough ‘prestige’… i beg to differ… these are easily more trendy and swish than a base german car…

hey i hate them but i understand a slick marketing campaign and the whole ‘buzz’ around this car

The car is very stylish, but $56 000??? I would also buy something more presitigious for that money!!!

If you have driven both of those on a trac you’d fast change your post. The Mini is a literal track weapon, the BMW works better in everyday life.

It can’t compete with BMW for sure. But there’s no doubt too that this Mini looks good. Red looks great in this car.

I agree – for a little more the new BMW 123d will blow this away.

But car purchases aren’t logical decisions…

Looks great and goes hard, but $56,900? You can buy so much more metal for that sort of money.
