I did test drive a 2016 cooper s and it was good. But it was lacking in that hard to explain joy of driving factor. It didn't make me want to take the long and twisty route instead of going directly there as much as my 06 still does. The 06 still puts a smile on my face every day on my commute. Well at least when it's working properly

My test drive scale of driving joy
Highest to lowest
2016 Mx-5 (by a massive margin)
2016 Wrx
'06 cooper s
2014 Frs
2016 cooper s
2016 Mazda 3
2015 Golf (DSG auto)
2013 beetle turbo
2015 Kia Optima
2015 GTI ( hated the clutch)
2015 mustang ecoboost (looks alone make me still want one)
201? Challenger v6 auto rental (way better then expected)
2016 Impreza & Crosstrek
2013 MKZ
2015 renegade
(Assume manual unless otherwise stated.)
its a pretty tight pack between Mazda 3 and the impreza. A lot of good cars on the market now
