It was a battle between the new Fiat Pop and a used Mini Cooper.

Winner = 2010 Mini Cooper
The 2013 Fiat Pop took a very close 2nd because it’s New and so dang cute!!!
But with the Mini-Cooper only being $499 more out the door, with only 26,560 mi., BMW backing, a better resale value, plus the classic white pepper color to boot… it jumped ahead of the 2013 Fiat Pop.
