So I had a 2010 just a clubman for about three years, and I walked into a Mini dealer just curious to see what I could find... They had a red 2012 Coupe S that I really liked. The only way I was going to step into a new car was if I got an INSANE deal.... And low and behold, I did. Dealer sold this way below invoice, and it had a few nice options (Sport package, leather dash, piano black interior, Bluetooth, Harmon Karmon sounds). So I got my new dream Mini today, and I couldn't be happier! I look forward to meeting some folks and ramping up my Mini knowledge here

 

I'm switching from a 2009 Clubman S to a 2103 JCW Coupe in a few weeks. Is it weird going from a "larger" MINI to, essentially, the smallest MINI?

 

Woah..... You're getting a 2103 JCW?! Does it do time travel too? Haha. jk.

I have to say, it's not really weird (yet) because the steering column and dash is essentially the same so it feels like you're driving the same car. It's only different when you turn around to store something, and realize you have NO backseat. Haha. I think it's great so far. I don't like carpooling anyways

 

Very nice! Enjoy.
