I know, they're not in the same price level, but which one would you prefer?

Thx

Ummm, the two are NOT even in the same league:Q

But the Mini is DEFINITELY of higher quality than the Subaru...the Suby feels cheap inside. I'm not all about power, so I'd take the Mini Cooper S. It'll probably do 0-60 in about 6.7 second which is plenty fast for me. And it looks much cooler too IMHO.

NFS4:
I know, but I already have some thoughts, about which car I would get next year. I also think the STi isn't in my price level, but I'll have to look what the future brings ;) I saw on a page, 4.5 for 0-60 in the STi *drool*, but OK, that's with a professional driver...

Do you guys have some pics from the Maxima?

I think the new mini, like the newer "bug", is an insult to the old school mini. I want an older mini (pre '74).

Old school mini's kick arse.

i'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you... ummm... yeah...


anyways, the Subaru is nice as hell. I dont care about cheap interior, all i care about is gas, brake, clutch, steering wheel, shifter. any more than that and its a luxury. ;)

In Switzerland, the Subaru Impreza is called Farmer-Porsche. And I'll tell you, a STi will beat a M3 from 0-60...... of course, the drivers are equal....
