Love 'em or hate 'em, these cars made a splash

Mini Cooper

Proving just how divergent the needs and wants of car shoppers can be, the 2000s saw the rise of not only the gas-guzzling and mud-slinging Hummer H2, but also the reintroduction of a 1960s econocar classic, the Mini Cooper. Developed by BMW, new Minis once again zipped along U.S. streets, delivering precision driving dynamics in a fun-loving package. Styling relied heavily on the Minis of old, and the funky interior marked a clear departure from modern-day small-car design. Look past the oversized speedometer and oddly-placed switches, and you’d discover little rear seat room but a good bit of storage space – perfect for the commuter or young urban dweller.
