Actually Rusty was considering that since its a BMW but honestly the prices of parts are not as bad as the real BMW.

Why I say that...because the mini has less sensors or less high tech gizzmos compared even to a 3 series BMW.

The car is still a raw car that is why its priced less expensive than a BMW.

The two cars are completely different cars... no point of comparison.

Both are nice fun cars but I would say the Mini gives me bigger grin in my face as its like a small rocket ship..why I say that because the mini has a drive selector modes when you put it into sport a small 🚀 is being displayed on the center dash.

I really find that funny but yes it does feel like a rocketship at that sport mode.
I would say driving like a go-Kart in steroids!

The other car that I feel the same loads of fun is the 370Z.

Maybe a few more years when kids are settled down.. I’ll get me another sports package 370Z unmolested.

Personally I would like to thank you FPenis for assisting me to make a calculated decision in making this purchase.

As I hard balled negotiating with the sales manager FP is giving me inside view of the cars market value at auctions.

Sales manager scratch head as to where I get those numbers. Lol

Its like an insider info for stock brokerages!
