autoMedia.com Test Drives The 2012 MINI Roadster Cooper S

Ben Lewis provides a test drive review of the 2012 MINI Roadster Cooper S for autoMedia.com.  Lewis concludes:
So does the Mini Roadster deserve a place at the table? Absolutely. It’s a great urban cut-and-thruster. An excellent fine weather cruiser. It would be great for a getaway weekend, especially if you kept things within a couple hours’ drive. It also has a different vibe than the Convertible – a little more daring, a bit more style statement. And most notably, a few days after we returned our tester, we really missed it. And there are only a handful of vehicles we drive every year that makes us feel that way.
