Traded in my 05 Audi S4. I do miss the grunt of the V8 but the jcw is QUICK! And the gas mileage is awesome! Has every option except the HK sound...(although I did hear the HK sound in a different mini and it sounds the same. How can I tell besides the badge on the speaker grill). 15K miles........All for $26K.

How does it not have the aero package? did you just do the tuning and wheels/brakes packages?

The '09 did not automatically come with the JCW aero, that is new for this year. This is a factory JCW, not an S with tuning kit, the wheels and brakes are standard on all factory JCWs.

JKWerks, your car looks awesome!

In '09 the upgraded stereo was not HK but what they called MINI hifi. This option had tweeters in the windshield pillars. They went back to HK for the upgraded stereo in I believe 2011.

Ah that makes sense. I thought the 09's were just missing the badge.
