Haha, wont be doing any of those stunts! yea real fun cars! I love the handling and the go cart feel. Its so easy to get around and cornering is unbelievable compared to the boat cornering feel of the 4 gen.. Going to save for some bbs wheels then work on some jcw products to boost some power.

I'm 6' 2" and fit perfectly into my aunt's mini cooper. It was actually really comfertable. I'd love to have one of these cars. They stick to the road very well and would be a lot of fun to own as a 2nd car I think.

I have no idea how you can be comfortable in that thing. I'm about your height and I was sat in one at the auto show. All I can say is... there would be some shoulders touching and there wont be any passengers in the back.

I am 6'8 250 yea ex pro basketball player. I fit in it just fine. I have to pump the seat all the way down and put the seat all the way back. I have to put the seat all the way back in every car i drive. I like to ride solo or have one passenger at the most which is my gf and she is 5'3. She also drives a 06 mini cooper too. I drive that all the time right now. The 07 is bigger than the 06 by almost 3inches and length and width. I dont know why people think this car is extremely small. Corvettes, 240sx, 300zx, altima coupe, are small cars to name a few, i can't even fit in any of those at all. I can't even put my leg in a 350z.lol I wanted one of those pretty bad!
After i get some bbs rims and a couple of jcw products the back seat is coming out! I'll put a gp rear strut bar back there and my little jl w7 sub.

Its 24k straight up. Pretty basic, turbo, leather steering wheel with shifters and volume, radio control,cruise control buttons on it, push to start button sparkling silver metallic paint, leatherette sport seats, 16' bridge spokes wheels, automatic,piano black dash, bi xenon projector headlights and no sunroof.(didn't want one) I really like the steering wheel shifters, thats going to be fun!

im not worried about that quote, more dudes drive mini cooper than chicks.

yea they have turbo chargers now because the complaints with the supercharger. The supercharger wines too much and it had major turbo lag... Ive drove a 06 with the supercharger it sounded like a race car stock and the lag was horrible but it was quick! The 07 is quicker and no lag no turbo whine. Can't wait to get some JCW on it.

I liked not having a car payment. I paid cash for it back in 01. I had nba tryouts for the bulls and with the rockets back in 02 and got cut before preseason started. Then after that I played overseas in s.korea,japan, china and lebanon. My car just stayed in the garage collecting dust. Came back and bought me a house and kept driving the max. It was a clean black on black leather max with a couple of mods.

That's cool, my cousin's boyfriend almost had to play overseas, but the Lakers picked him up in time. He's played for the Kicks, Celtics, and the Lakers.

Mini's handle really nicely. They have decent power. But they're heavy and they are terrible in crashes. I know firsthand.

ok, i fixed it! better? But yea, real fun car! Major difference from the boat handling max i had. The speed is crazy! i feel like I am in a porsche or something. I love my bi xenons! Thats why I didn't get the sparking silver.... The color is pepper white with black/grey carbon leatherette sport seats. THe seats are comfy! Im going to work on some apperence stuff first then the interior then some jcw upgrades and some bbs wheels. I dont like all the chrome on the car so im going to get black trim for those.
