2006 Mini Cooper S, 106k miles, British racing green metallic with a silver top and mirrors, two tone gray/black leatherette interior, 6 speed, sunroof, premium package, Harmon Kardon stereo, cold weather package with heated seats, tinted windows, etc. It is completely stock. This is a local Atlanta car that was ordered from Global Imports Mini/BMW. It has a clean vehicle history through both Carfax and Autocheck. It has never been wrecked or painted. It has just received the 100k service from a local European car specialist. This service includes new sparkplugs, fluid change, filter change and a general once over. The car is in excellent mechanical condition. The car has Continental runflat tires that are a little over a year old. If you look at any other Mini's, you should make sure they have runflats as they don't have a spare tire. A large percentage of owners and dealers will put non-runflats on to save money. If you have read this ad to this point you should already know that this car has the supercharged engine. This was the last year of this engine prior to the follow up car with a turbo. This car is fast with 168hp.

The flaws on this car are few but should be noted so that you get a full understanding of it's condition before driving over to take a look in person. It has 2-3 spots where the windshield has been damaged by stones. It also has stone chips in the hood that could be touched up and the normal dents, dings and scratches of a car with just over 100k miles. I did remove the factory stripe kit as it was faded. The interior is like new. It has never been smoked in. I have both keys and the original books, window sticker, factory touch up paint and tool kit. Title is in hand and the purchase will be in cash or I will accept a cashier's check from a major national bank. All funds will be verified before releasing the car.

I have priced the car fairly at $8850. I have seen base models sell for this price so you are getting a deal. I have done my research as to the value of this car, so if you want to come over and whine and negotiate please save us both a lot of time and go to a dealer that gets paid for this type of nonsense. I live in Sandy Springs and the car can be viewed at my home. If you have any questions not addressed above, just shoot me an email.

2015 Mini Cooper stuns crowd, itself [w/videos]

Thu, 21 Nov 2013

Remember the Mini Rocketman concept from 2011? While we were really, really hoping for a production version - a properly mini Mini - that never happened. And it won't. But what we are getting is a whole lot of that showcar's styling cues applied to the third-generation Mini Cooper hardtop, a model making its debut here at the LA Auto Show. And while from most angles, the new Mini is as cute as ever, we just can't quite warm up to that face - or that huge front overhang. The car simply looks like a frightened goldfish (that yellow paint isn't helping, either).

It should probably be pretty nice to drive, though, with the base Cooper using a new turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine good for 134 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. Friskier Cooper S models get a healthy power increase, their 2.0-liter turbo engines putting out a full 189 hp and 207 lb-ft, with both engines are mated to either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission.

2014 Mini Cooper

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

If I had a dollar for every time I heard someone from Mini refer to 'go-kart-like handling,' I'd be retired, living on a beautiful piece of coastline somewhere in the Caribbean. Perhaps even on the shores of Puerto Rico, where Mini chose to launch its latest Cooper and Cooper S hatchbacks. As with so many frequently used phrases, though, there is indeed some truth to the cliché - while the Mini Cooper has never actually handled quite like a go kart, it has always had a certain directness in its movements, reacting to steering inputs with an immediacy and fervor unlike most any other automobile meant primarily for the street.
Combine those unique driving dynamics with a sense of fun that permeates the entire brand from pre-sales marketing to the actual sales process itself and you end up with a marketplace success. As an ex-Mini owner myself (a 2009 Cooper S Convertible), I can attest to the kinship felt between fellow Mini drivers who share in the knowledge that they are having more fun than the poor appliance-driving masses sharing the highways and byways of these United States. It's no surprise that the style-conscious US continues to be the marque's single largest market year after year.
This enviable brand perception hasn't been attained without its own fair share of flaws, however. Though the quirky design and massively customizable bits and pieces that have made up the Mini brand's interior philosophy since it was reborn in 2001 have proven somewhat endearing, the Cooper Hardtop's ergonomics have always been an unmitigated disaster. Plus, this is a very small car, with a rear seat that's practically uninhabitable by adult-size occupants. While that adjective seemingly goes hand-in-hand with the brand's name, the modern Cooper has never been as ingeniously packaged as its 1959 forbearer, which offered up as much interior space as possible through innovative engineering and minimalist design. Further, parent company BMW has positioned Mini as a premium brand, so the Cooper's diminutive size has never equated to low prices. And for being such a small car, the Cooper historically hasn't been well-known for its fuel efficiency.

Mini deletes center rail in Countryman, Paceman

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

When Mini first introduced the Countryman, it only came as a four-seater, with a center rail between the two seats that could house things like cup holders and could be slid back and forth. Buyers could even opt for a full-length center rail that ran from just aft of the gear shifter all the way back between the rear seats, like we did in our long-term 2011 Cooper S Countryman All4, shown above.
Shortly after the Countryman's launch, Mini was able to offer the vehicle with a proper rear bench seat; the company could not offer this at launch due to NHTSA guidelines that governed the minimum vehicle width for three-person seating, but those rules were changed. And now, we've received official confirmation of something we reported last year: the Countryman is losing its center rail and four-person seating arrangement altogether. Moving forward, buyers will only be able to spec a Countryman with the bench seat, and a cup holder will be affixed to the back of the forward cabin's center console.
The larger-but-smaller Paceman will also be losing the center rail between its rear seats, but the car will remain a four-seater, instead having a console between the two rear seats that houses a cup holder, an iPod cozy and a 12-volt outlet, according to USA Today.
