I know the exchange rates are pretty brutal right now but the value for the dollar equation seems poor on this JCW hot rod to me. $30K for starters is kind of pricey.

40mpg even with all the added grunt? Are those Imperial gallons? For the love of God! Start using the SI system! Replies to this message: photofinish (Aug 01, 2008 9:46 pm) packrfan (Aug 28, 2008 6:28 am)

Replying to: waterflame (Jul 15, 2008 1:15 pm) i just took delivery of a 2009 Mini Cooper S JCW today. The dealer said it was the first 2009 model Mini in the country and definitely the first 2009 JCW in the country too. Whatever. Anyways, we got it loaded with EVERYTHING. It's a lot of fun so far. the neighbors all came and checked it out. they can hear the exhaust a block away. yeah, it's conspicuous, but what the hey. great gas mileage too.
