The MINI is a great, fun car. The only bummer I had with my '06 R53 was the build quality. It is a cheap car. I had so many repair issues with that car, that I swore I would never buy another MINI Product again. We still have 1 R53 in our family, and I drive it at least a couple times a month. It is such a fun little car. Compared to the 135, it is a much more in your face driving experience. Louder, more vibration from the engine, suspension is tighter, lotsa stuff stands out.

As far as MINI owners being a bit cult like, yupp that is 100% true. Go check some of the MINI forums, you'll see what we mean.
