An IIHS Top Safety Pick. A J.D. Power Dependability Award. An Automotive Science Group Best Social Performance Brand choice. One of KBB’s 10 Coolest Cars Under $25,000. Yes, MINI is no stranger to winning awards, yet there’s one accolade that we’re secretly extra proud of achieving: The 2021 Hipster Car Brand Award™.

MINI didn't originally set out to make hipster cars; young people and hipsters just collectively decided that MINI made the best small cars for showing off vintage clothes and handlebar mustaches. And who are we to argue with that?

With cooler Autumn temperatures in South Florida, fall signals the arrival of many exciting events and activities for the entire family, Fall in South Florida has something for just about everyone, from concerts, car shows, fairs, and festivals to parades and sporting events.

Brought to you by Braman MINI of Miami, here’s a handy guide to some of the top local events happening throughout South Florida this fall season. (Note: with the changing COVID-19 health situation, please contact the event organizer directly to verify their information before attending an event.)

If you’re trying to find the best small crossover for sale, you’ve undoubtedly crossed paths with MINI and Fiat along your research journey. Both automakers are “small vehicle” brands – that is, they sell mostly small vehicles, obviously – and they know what works best in a limited amount of space. What we’re getting at is this: Just as you wouldn’t buy a full-size pickup made by Fiat, you shouldn’t necessarily choose a subcompact SUV made by, say, RAM. It’s logical to stick to companies that understand their products.

You may not think a lot about your brakes when driving around South Florida in your MINI from Braman MINI of Miami. Your MINI’s brakes are designed to work flawlessly by bringing your MINI to a safe stop every time you depress the brake petal. That’s what makes your brakes one of the most important safety systems on your MINI.

Over time, certain brake parts will begin to wear out with normal use. That’s why it’s important to know when it’s time to replace certain key brake components like brake pads and brake rotors. 

As one of the world’s most desirable places to live, South Florida is a magnet for billionaires, tech titans, celebrities, media moguls, and other well-heeled folks. That’s why you’re sure to see every manner of a high-end luxury car - from Bentley, BMW, and Bugatti to Rolls-Royce and Porsche - on Miami’s sun-drenched streets.

Here are a few of the many reasons why the MINI stands out as one of South Florida’s most affordable luxury automobiles.

Who here remembers the MINI E?

*raises hand*

Well, that little, small electric car, which went through a test run in 2009, was MINI’s first foray into EV manufacturing. Few got to see, let alone drove it, yet the E was thought by many to be MINI’s next “big” thing.
