I know this strays a little off topic, but I was curious what other peoples' thoughts (maybe first hand experience) were about this car.
The wife and I are considering offloading the Mini Cooper (resale value on that thing is great) in favor of something a little more (okay, a LOT more) plush. It's kind of ridiculous, but these SC's lose a good 75% of their initial value (02's and 03's) even if their mileage is still under 60k to 70k miles. We went and drove one the other day and what a fanTASTIC car. It's just this particular one had the crap beat out of it - shame.
Some people think they're ugly - others think they're gorgeous. This one I looked at yesterday, (despite the fact that it looked like somebody let their muddy, 200lb husky run rampant through the interior) looked quite sharp with the top down.
I think the one thing that disappointed me the most is their attempt to call this car a 4-seater. The back seats are nonsense. Unless you want to wrap yourself around the steering wheel while driving, nobody could comfortably sit behind the driver.
At any rate, just curious what peoples' thoughts were.
