I'm 34.
Bought a WRX while I waited for the MINI.
Drove the WRX for 13,000 miles and have 11,000 on the MINI.

The MCS does handle really great. But front drive makes it harder to power out of corners real well.
It may be lack of power or the run-flat tires being not great.
love the look of the MINI inside and out so much better. I also like the steady power buildup. WRX is much more Jekyl/Hyde type of car. Suspension on WRX is more comfort oriented...I do miss that car quite a bit, especially the power.

I had a M Roadster before that...weird how I'm going down in horsepower lately.

No mods planned right now for MCS.
