Mazda is the fastest as stated. they pull pretty good.
not sure as far as the actually driving experience goes..i didnt like it when i drove one.
mini is too small imo.
not sure on VW the two we had sucked, but they were bad models(cabrio and beetle)
CPO..expensive you might as well get a new car imo.
k thats my negative side.
i like the mazda idea. Check some "02" "03" E46's. see what you can find.
