Pros: What do you like about 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Zip! This car is as fun to drive as my first Spitfire, but with a lot more power!
The whole experience is sport car feel and you really feel connected to the road.
Great gas mileage.
My 6'4" son has no problem fitting in the car.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Cheap armrest is in way of parking brake.
More gauges, esp Water Temp, Boost, Oil Pressure. Also would like a sensor for coolant level. (Had a coolant leak and did not know until I no longer had cabin heat.)
2007 MINI Cooper S Review:
One of the best cars I have ever owned. Great mileage, great performance. Fantastic customization options. Run Flat tires have saved my rims several times this pot hole season. Car has rattles and squeaks, and engine noise is ever present.
If you want a quiet luxury car, buy something else. If you want a driver's car that will keep a wide mouth grin on your face as you take corners, this is the car for you.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 MINI Cooper S?
The thing is fast, I've had it over 150. Mine is the 2005, John Cooper Works Mini.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Make it easier to work on!
2007 MINI Cooper S Review:
It's to hard to get to anything like to change the oil. I don't like the sealed cooling system and have had a problem with the ac since day one. Also, the tail pipes stick out too far, I got burned and have to warn everyone when getting anything out of the back. Oxygen sensors, the dealer wanted over 600.usd to change the two on my car. I took it to another mechanic and he wanted 570.usd. I bought them on line, under 60.with the shipping. Car cost way too much to maintain.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Go kart handling, decent fuel economy.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Fix the plethora of squeeks and rattles, improve ride smoothness. Traction control and stabaility control should not be controlled with one button, its all or nothing. You always want stability control but not always traction control. Stop moonroof from sticking closed in hot weather. Improve dealer service staff's capability and truthfulness. Fix engine gremlins, engine clatter on cold start, engine is also very loud (sounds like a diesel). Auto up windows were never an option on 2007 and most of 2008's, it should be a software upgrade but its not. Sunroof should auto open and close and the sun shade is pathetic. Oh and be careful with the exhaust tips, you'll get burned because BMW/MINI's engineers could not figure out that if they stick out past the bumber people might get burned. It took the Feds to threaten BMW/MINI with action for them to finally recall the cars after numerous customers got burned.
2007 MINI Cooper S Review:
Way over priced!!!!!!! Hassel (Freeport, NY) & Manhattan Mini have horrendous service technicians and advisors. MINI has no handle on their dealer network and lets them run wild abusing customers. The last BMW/MINI product I will ever lease/own!

Pros: What do you like about 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Great looking car. Glad they offer an LSD. Feels BMW solid.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 MINI Cooper S?
Could use a little more power. Speedometer needs to be smaller. Needs better (sportier) seats. Thats it.
