I know you said you could but i'm guessing you can't really afford either. You are looking at $20,500-$25,000. On a 60 month buy that's $375-455 a month.

mini cooper si
why buy a car that is ghay? there is a reason they are affordable: not made as well. stay with a honda.

a new car is always nice, at least for the first 6mo, after that its the same old thing. get a used honda that you will like to drive. i personally like the 2002 civic-si, because of this i would buy one even tho i could afford alot of other situations.

Si....the only way I would get a Mini is if it had the Union Jack on the roof and mirrors and came in British Racing Green. But the novelty of it would wear off fast I think.

if you plan on keeping it for a while and you like the performance of the honda i would choose that one, long run it will be more satisfying. if this isa short term relationship then perhaps the style of the mini wins out.
i would choose the honda any day, warts adn all.
