Couple of my coworkers have minis and they like them, but they don't drive very well. ;x
You already own enough guns to arm a small army of people, you might as well spend some money on a dope *** car(STi).
or get your self an 05 WRX, that would still be a step up from an RS and easily modded. But you don't get the extra perf. stuff the STi comes stock with.
I would get the STi personally, its a nice, fun car.

dude, people say "subaru"?? who the hell wants a "subaru"? They dont know about them. Same, I think with the SRT-4. I dont care if its a "NEON"...it is still pretty nice, and quick for what it is. and is 23K out the door NEW, has factory power mods, ant at leasat they put an LSD in it too. Most people dont know about things like that and are shallow when it comes to performance, and the things, we are interested in.
So, for a "NEON"..it can hold it's own...not saying it's THE BEST, but it's not bad. Better than a stock wrx for sure!!

Getting a CooperS or getting a SRT-4 are completely opposites. The CooperS can handline, is used quite often in auto-x, and is a great nimble car with a power package to back it up. While the SRT-4 is a straight line, OHCRAPI'MGONNAHITACORNERSOONWTFDOIDO? car. And why would you get a SRT-4 is you're tired of "ricer boys trying to friggin race me all the time."
Though, have fun getting the spare out if/when you need it =)

well, like I said, I heard it's trap times were pretty close to the Sti, so It cant be that bad. Plus, we all know...it all depends on who's behide the wheel.
Since we know Dan can't drive...then I guess you are right...dont get it.
With some good suspension mods...I am sure the SRT-4 would do just fine on the track. Afterall, you have to spend some money on the Mini...just to give it some decent power anyway.

6'6" + Elise = bad.
Also, selling guns = bad.
