For 2007, the MINI Cooper has undergone extensive revamping. The changes include an evolutionary transformation to the body design, an all-new interior, and a new 4-cylinder engine. Also upgraded were the suspension, transmission, steering, and braking systems, which were massaged to produce improved drivability. Overall the MINI has been slightly bumped up in length, and the MINI Cooper S performance version is a bit more muscular looking to differentiate it from the base Cooper trim level. A quick-look reference point is the air intake scoop that’s integrated in the hood of the S model only.
