I tested both the Mini Cooper and Volvo C30. The C30, by far, is the most comfortable and easy to find a great driving position. Driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco without any back or shoulder fatigue! see full review |

For a starting price in the low 20s, you get the Volvo T5 engine found in higher priced S40 model. The 230 hp makes this little car flry. see full review |

The I-5 Turbo is a sweet little engine that packs some descent performance for a small car. The car is sporty but no pocket rocket either. A nice balance for performance and daily piratical driving needs. see full review |
