Thats all I can think of right now...
You Forgot Mazda Miata... Not that I'd necessarily argue with its status as a chick car, but...

p.s. There aren't many "chick cars" that can perform on a track like a MINI.
I will say the Miata probably supercedes the Mini as the 'most fun you will ever have driving a car that also leaves a minimal carbon footprint'. With its classic roadster style and proper front engine, rear drive platform (would BMW* ever make a front driver, come on..) I'd argue it is more fun to drive, and everybit the definition of a roadgoing go cart...

* I realize Mini is manufactured under the broad ownership of BMW, but I doubt that BMW would ever label a front drive car as the 'Ultimate Driving Machine'..
