3 months ago when I started my car search a Mini was the furthest thing from my mind...then I came across a JCW Coupe. It took me 3 months to finally test drive one and well...I'M HOOKED!! I pick it up on April 15th...I can't wait!!!
Welcome to NAM, cayjorjan and congrats on your new MINI. As mgriffin1300 said, you're going to love your new MINI. Don't forget to post pics on delivery day. We'll be waiting.
I bought my R56 JCW in Chicago as well (Patrick in Schaumburg). We did the same thing. Got a couple of $65 one-way tickets on Southwest, dealer picked us up from the Airport, and we drove it home...
While they were getting my car prepped, they suggested I drive the JCW coupe on the lot for grins.....er, ok !!
Really, really fun car. I am 6'6" and while it was snug, I fit just fine. Nice handling set up. Had the Recaro seats which are very nice as well.
the exhaust makes a great impression being so close to the back of your head...sounded great...
