Would You Ever Think That The Mini Could Be A Chick Magnet?

I once dated a young woman who owned dozens of models of Minis. They seemed to be on every surface in her apartment, and she even owned multiples of some models in several different colors.

The answer is yes. I have a 2012 JCW Roadster since February and have received over 50+ comments about the car and how I personalized it with more than half coming from woman. While I've owned other cars that have attracted some attention the ratio of men to woman has always favored men by a large margin. I think the combination of its spunky looks, non threating manner (Mini owners are appoachable, Porsche owners are not...maybe not politically correct but true), and that women look at it like its a fashion accessory account for their popularity with the fairer sex. Personally I like the way it handles, the great gas milage and that I can have a reasonable priced convertible with a manual transmission.
