The Mini has a turbocharged I4 as well. However its only a 1.6L not a 2.3L. The mini makes 180Hp the MS3 puts out 263Hp. Its apples and oranges. They aren't even in the same class. Mini cooper S 0-60 time=6.7sec. MS3 0-60=4.88sec. As for the charger well its a disgrace all that displacement and its pwned. just crap cars and a mini essentially hung with it.
You're right the Mini is Turbocharged. I didn't realize that. I have never seen an MS3 do 60 in under 5 seconds at least for a stock. It's listed from 5.9 to 5.5.
The Mini's a stud, I have to say. But I'd much rather have the MS3. Chargers are garbage!
good video. I have a 09 Cooper S with just a CAI. The CAI really doesn't do anything except make it sound better, love that turbo and BOV. anyway, my brother has a stock 2010 mazdaspeed 3 and on the highway from 60 to 140 he only beats me by about 4 car links. don't believe MINI when they say the cooper S has 172 hp and 177tq. real numbers are closer to 195 and 200. i love both cars. but i got to good a deal on the cooper plus the resale value.
Nice vid, I love smoking chargers. Nothing against the car so much as my experiences with the drivers always seem to be bad. Seems like everyone I have raced with one was a complete ass about it. Not to mention 9 times out of 10 I see a charger driving down the freeway they are cutting people off acting like they own the road. Bunch of off duty cops if you ask me.
Yeah but it goes both ways. Notice most of the assese driving them aren't even in the Hemis, they're driving like they have em. I notice Hemi drivers usually are really non-challant, like they know what they have and have nothing to prove.
okay the supercharged mini runs slower than the turbo version i have a 08 turbo mini S and its alot faster then that one. i think i would of kept up with the charger alot better or even beat it.
BMW MINI Beatiful enginnered car! That`s outsold anything that comes even slightly close to the handeling and quality then any jap box can come close to! Infact millions round the world rave about the MINI! So sorry my liitle jap fanatics with their plastic dashboards go do the Halfords circuit!! BMW rules! END just the name mazda speed makes me lol!!
minis are great handling car, but are just too slow!
heavy, underpowered, they are good around the corners. but when the longstrech comes around they get left behind.
i was going to buy the new mini S, specialy that it is turbo and not SC anymore, but i just can not get pass the dashboard, i hate the instrument cluster.
You are acting like the MINI is some really good done up car, the MINI has more plastic in their cars than most American cars. What are you talking about?
Your just butt hurt cause your precious mini cooper got absolutely demolished. Oh, and is the mini a car and driver 10 best car every year its been out. I didn't think so. Tool!
i think by now its been established the mini isnt for straight line runs....its for courses/roads that actually have corners that require something more than pressing the gas down as far as you can...besides the charger is garbage...once again...5.7L Hemi...with a slushbox...
Yet another monkey who is homofobic tosser, gay this lesbian that..give your mum some sex like you always do! The doge if he actually accelerated would wipe the floor with both! Mazda speed..yuk! I have a cooper S with 250BHP. THE END
THE END? If you mod one car you gotta mod the other. I guess you're just mad you drive a Lesbian Limousine.. sucks to be you. You should trade it in for something fast like a Mazaspeed 3. AND no the charger wouldn't "wipe the floor on a Mazdaspeed 3, and that's a fact
lol, learn some histroy, mazda has been racing for a VERY long time, and I would buy any mazda over a lesbian limousine, I mean, a Mini Cooper any day. You probably bought the car after watching italian job, until you realized the movie made them look faster than they really are.
you do know that 90 percent of the parts on the mazda are from ford. You crack me up the damn car is half american but i do agree they arent that great. btw the mini isn't nothing to brag about either that thing is slow as balls.
Actually, the only part on my mazdaspeed3 that is from ford is the frame, and it's not anything from American ford, it is off the euro spec ford focus, everything else are mazda only parts. And so what if it did share 90% of ford parts? It will still blow the doors off 90% of cars today.
90% of our parts say FoMOCO on them..... Brakes, hoses, all the sensors. But you are right, there isnt much from the factory you can buy for 23k that will keep up.
really? I've pretty much taken apart my ms3 and put it back together and I didn't see one part that said FoMoCo. Even the BOV says MAZDA on it and the spark plugs are NGK. I don't know why everyone hates on ford though, alot of their engines are pretty bullit proof.
coopers220 your a fucking idiot you claim the charger would beat them?haha the chrager would break down if you accelerate to hard or pass 10,00 miles on the odm.hahaha
On a tight track of course a MINI would win! The Mazdaspeed 3 is way f'n faster than a Cooper S in any other area and that is fact. The Mini is just good at autocross type courses and would be spanked badly by a Mazdaspeed 3 in any other than autocross/ tight tracks.
I would say a mini would "rape" a MS3 on a track either. It can probably handle a little better given it's so tiny, etc.. But in the striaght parts of the track...bye bye mini :( and in the end the MS3 would win. Now, if the track was extremely tight, then the mini would win of course.
how about you check out the car and driver that compared the MS3, Mini, Civic, and WRX. On the track, the MS3 out performed in every part over the other vehicals, and the WRX did better than the Mini. Mini are not awesome track cars, trust me.
Who the hell goes and street races thier cooper down a highway. Guy is insulting the name cooper and should be stripped of his mini and have it replaced with a civic.
what a stupid thing to say... that it's not an R/T. It's definitely an R/T, and we just saw an example of power to weight ratio. The MS3 weighs 1000 lbs less
Not to mention the 2.7L V6 that comes in chargers is rated CRANKSHAFT HP pretty close to what a stock Mini-S will dyno AT THE WHEELS... NOT TO MENTION the Mini weighs about 2000 pounds.
damnnn nice race i havent race my car yet.. when im driving my speed there is no car on da highway hahaha i dont know why i cant find a car that wanna race
love speed3 hate gay car mini cooper and if that race was real than thats gay that a v8 can get wooped that bad all power to that mazda i got mad respect for that just cant affort it.
Hey! leave my 4K lb car alone okay lol, yeah i definately give props to the ms3 it is a really quick car. eventhough we have done other runs that my take off is a bit better at a higher rpm but still i think the ms3 will take me. we will see what happens when i get a CAI, and a chip, maybe a little Nos, but that i have to see. We will keep vids posted of our runs.
I recently added a CP-E CAI that made a difference I thought, especially now that I can hear my BPV pretty good. Other than that my car is completely stock. The Charger R/T is completely stock and the Mini Cooper S supposidly has an ugraded pulley for its supercharger. Definitely the Speed3 is amazing!
i only put 3500 in my car including suspension. n minis r meant for turns -.-
