Luvdmustang · February 15th, 2007, 02:29 AM

funny how ricers and other scumbag drivers pick on cars lower than them when the get a turbo or supercharger.

i like the mini cooperS.. supercharged tiny car...fast & can handle like a motherfucker! a lot of people don't expect much out of them & they are often unpleasantly suprised..

Mini cooper is a nice car, But you should beat an S off the line then about second he should be ahead of you.

hes also got major weight loss then you do... and i mean MAJOR

00vabchgt · February 15th, 2007, 04:51 PM

my best friend used to have a cooper s. they are some quick little cars. we were in a parking lot once, we met up to eat dinner or something. as we were walking to our cars, we noticed a group of import guys hanging around their cars, whatever. he peeled out in his mini and as i stood and watched, they all turned and yelled HOLY SHIT!. this was a few years before i got my stang, so i felt kinda left out tho.

GreenFaleen · February 15th, 2007, 05:31 PM

lol The best thing about the mini cooper is if you can't find a parking space you and just pull it into the back of your friends pickup :wink.

96Snaker · February 15th, 2007, 10:06 PM

If they ever release a Mini equipped with a diesel engine and a manual tranny here in the States, I'd immediately go buy one for my daily driver. I'd take one running on gasoline, but for a car that weighs half a ton you'd think it'd get better than 25mpg. My neighbor has on 03 Cooper S and it's quick but not fast... if that makes sense. Good off the line, bad top end, like any four banger (most cases anyways).

87foxbodylx · February 15th, 2007, 10:07 PM

V8 in a cooper... now your talking....

eh nothing a little fabrication cant do

awd? NAH! what would be the fun of that.....?

this also bring to my mind. I always thought about Turbocharging my Jeep. shit it only weights 300lbs more then my mustang... 3675lbs for the jeep IIRC could be a bad ass sleeper... 4.0L Straight six... sssssssssss psh....

96Snaker · February 15th, 2007, 10:22 PM

awd for the handling side of performance.. mini's aren't really known for their straight-line capabilities, lol. Fact is I don't even know what their drivetrain is... FWD maybe? Hell if I know.

87foxbodylx · February 15th, 2007, 10:26 PM

yep its FWD. I have to laugh at the motor though. 1.7 liter 97 CUI 4 cylinder....

its amazing what people are getting out of 4 bangers these days

stanged out · February 16th, 2007, 12:20 AM

u think with gears tlok cai true duel and pullies i can take one ?? this last one beat me by like 2-3 cars(like 6 minis) off a 25mph roll he whored me

.... i just slowed down n u-turn i didnt think those things would actually give me a race...

97Cobra · February 16th, 2007, 02:13 AM
