Right timing, I'm actually looking into a FiST right now. I had a R56 MINI Cooper S and boy that was so much fun on the street. I had to sell it because it's super high mileage and gradually becoming a money pit. While the new F56 MINIs have terrific interiors, IMHO I think they lost their charm.
Internet wisdom tells me that the FiST is the closest to it in spirit but somehow I'm just not biting it. In fairness, I haven't test driven it yet so I can't completely judge it. It got a lot praise from all across the board which is good. But that awful 'standard' Ford MyTouch whatever. I'll be very happy if it just had an old school stereo instead of that atrocity.
Also, the car looks a little tall for me. Almost Honda Fit-esque height.
