Q: Is there any car that is more fun to drive, better or close MPG, and better acceleration than a Mini Cooper S Convertible? Any suggestions should be under $30k please.

A: Acceleration-Tons of cars. All V6 powered cars. All 4 cylinder turbocharged and supercharged cars, and Honda's S2000 4 cylinder are faster than the mini Cooper S in acceleration and top speed. None with better gas mileage that are as fast. More fun to drive-Porsche Cayman S, BMW Z4 M, Lotus Elise, but they are more expensive. no car under $30k more fun to drive.
