I don't like anything about the Mini. Perhaps the turbo manual is fun to drive? Plenty of cars are fun to drive though. I'd probably buy a Honda S2000 if I wanted something small and fun. Then again, I'd just ride my motorcycle.

Cagers are meant to be practical, and I see little point in trying to make them "cool" or "fast". They are all uncool and slow in comparison to a motorcycle. There's something to be said for being fast while being protected from rain or oppressive heat though. Still pointless on most roads because it needlessly risks the public.

...I'm hoping my daughter takes an interest in go karts. Seems a relatively cheap way to have fun. I could see EV karting being popular since maintenance would be low as well as initial cost.
