I would love to have a mini as my first car.I have seen some up here for $8000
or around that price and because they have low hp that means low insurance.

We do get the Elise though just not the 340R and you can get a Noble that's pretty close. And you can find an old mini or buy a new one.

We are getting(dont have it yet) the Elise which costs $40,000 (btw 340R was a limited edition car)...yea i think ill just buy a go kart and take it to the track

The new Mini is pretty good though. And I think the Noble is one of the best cars in the world and now the new one is damn sexy.

The Aerial Atom is way fuckin cool with the Honda motor.

The new mini dosnt seem to have that absoulute weightless feel obviously because its heavier, But a original Cooper S is a little goer but it would get toasted by these
Westfield XTR
Aerial Atom
Tiger Z100 WR
Radical SR3
