wrx might be faster, but cooper S is a great driving car, needs more power for freeway use.... when you m3 and m5 parts in a little package it's always fun...

test drove one throught snake road, was like being on my sport bike... the wrx can't handle like that, they push to much..... the S is very well balenced.....

wrx is faster and a hell of alot more fun to drive then a mini cooper plus the wrx will not have half as many trips to the dealer... trust me i work for BMW and I own a WRX

if the guy with the mini has the WORKS kit it will be faster then 15sec 1/4 mile too.

I have driven both - I think the mini S corners better at least around town...at least better than my WRX (V7 STI pinks). I don't think it corners as well as the Miata though. That stupid little Miata can really conrner hard, no accel but what a corner machine only with upgraded tires.

Umm...watch out...Works Cooper S...

I played with one at speeds in excess of 12x mph, and with the stage 2 Vishnu tuned Forester, we were basically only keeping up...

We were on the auto280bahn when we met up with this guy, and he was acting as though he was in a hurry...so we decided to have some fun with him. Turns out, he was moving right along, and wasn't afraid of taking his little Cooper up to those speeds. Pretty damn quick little car!!

BTW, in Nabisco, a couple years ago, they had a challenge between a souped up Mini (even acid dipped...??) and an STi. The Mini had the advantage of track time under his belt, unlike the driver of the STi, who had never been on a track.

STi won by .4x seconds/lap.

Tell him something for me...

Tell him STFU!! The Forester is the #1 F'n lesbian vehicle in the Subaru lineup, thank you very much. Just ask someone who owns one...or two...or www.subaruforester.com .

And yes...I'm a lesbian.
