The Corvette is quite a bit lower, though: ~49 inches vs 55.4 for the Mini. It certainly is a fairly small car: perhaps not as small as the Mini, but much smaller than say a Chevy Suburban.

Suburban: 222.4 x 76.8 inches
Corvette: 174.6 x 49.1
Mini: 146.6 x 55.4

And unlike the Mini, the Corvette is a two-seater. But pick another car if you like, say the Porsche 911 series, or the Miata.
