2013 MINI Cooper Convertible Review
By KBB.com EditorsIf you want a car that feels more like an adult-sized go-kart, you'll love the Mini. These tidy 4-passenger vehicles are also effortlessly stylish inside and out, and offer high fuel economy. The Club
Even in the larger Clubman form, the 2013 Mini Cooper does not have an expansive interior. If you need to carry more than one passenger on a regular basis, you'll want to step up to a Mini Countryman.
Minis are nothing if not fun. With a rigid body structure and sporty suspension, Minis are attracted to twisty roads like metal to a magnet. For a front-wheel-drive vehicle, the Mini is immensely nimble in corners. Perhaps more impressive is how solid these cars are on the highway. For such a small vehicle, the Mini displays little to none of the nervousness that can plague other subcompacts at freeway speeds. The Convertible also deserves kudos for feeling remarkably planted. Even with the base engine, Mini Coopers are a blast to drive. We end

"If handling is important to you than this car is for you. When my wife or friends ride with me they tell me I'm having way too much fun. The car seems to anticipate what I want to do, the automatic always is in the best gear. The important controls fall right to hand. Other ones (window lifts, sun roof) are definitely Mini and take getting use too - not a complaint. The front seats are excellent, bolsters are perfect. Love the exhaust note. It is definitely a two person / grocery gofer car - although it held enough for two for a week at the beach. This is a great car guys retire's daily driver. Has been very reliable. Only problem was fixed under warranty. Average about 30MPG but could do much better if I drove conservatively."

Pros: "FUN!!!! Good Gas mileage, easy in town, visibility"
Cons: "Cost to buy, Interior space, options list"

"I absolutely love my MINI Cooper S! It is so fun to drive and it puts a smile on my face every time I start it up. The gas mileage is good, and the visibility is outstanding (better than a convertible with the top down). I live in town, and I love how the tiny design and really good visibility work together. The bad parts of my mini are that it is overpriced, just like every european car. The space in the front is fine, but you can't put a human being taller than 5'2" in the back comfortably. Also, with the rear seats up, the trunk is too small for even sub-compacts, although it does redeem itself when you fold them down. Finally, I was lucky that I found one with heated seats, digital radio, and fog lights; the options list will nickel and dime you for everything and it isn't cheap for those options. One more thing, if you are going to drive a MINI in the winter, like me, I recommend getting some really good snow tires, because the "all-season" runflats that come with it are bad in the snow."
