This Mini Cooper rental I got is the worst car I have ever driven. The mirrors suck. The pedal position sucks. Seating position sucks. When you set the cruise it will automatically go to the posted speed limit, even if gps is wrong. The UI is miserable. The stupid HUD for speed is blocked off by the steering wheel unless you are Wookiee height. The brake pedal is wildly inconsistent at low speeds.

The only good thing about them is the James May series that shows how they are built to custom order in the factory. I'd never own one but watching the process was pretty cool.

I can modulate my Fanatec load cell brake pedal for my sim setup left footed no problem. It has very little movement. This thing has tons of pedal travel but it’s hard to modulate at slow speeds. Look at this UI. WTF is an “experiences” switch for?!? Oh but at least the mirrors shine a little Mini emblem in the ground in the dark.

Yeah it changes the theme on the dash. The go kart mode also makes the shifts more aggressive.

"Back into a Pillar" mode? Isn't that a standard feature for a FRS?
