Default Opinions on a New York City Daily Driver

Living in the city, parking and driving a full sized vehicle is rather inconvinient. As a result, I am considering purchasing a compact DD that is easy to zip around the city, and park. But also has the flexibility of longer trips out to long island and such.

I prefer to have a car, as many of my friends live out on the island, and we go back and forth quite a bit. So no car, which is probably the smarter move, isn't an option at this point

I think I have narrowed it down to either the new Fiat Abarth, or the Mini Cooper Coupe.

What do you guys think? Which would you prefer? I realize they really aren't to everyone's liking (not 100% mine either). The fiat is about $3k cheaper at dealers around me, but also not as quick.
