I admit it's on my short list for cars that size, because you can drive it like a golf cart and fit it anywhere on the roads. At the same time, it's also surprisingly huge inside. My sister gets most of her stuff to from college in it, a lot more than i could say about even the newer mini. I just found the paddle shifters a bit absurd, because it is literally a 1-1.5 second shift. It kind of scared me the first time, because I went to shift at about 3,500, and didn't pop until i think 5,000. I thought i broke my sister's new car :P
