Just picked it up and am super happy with it. I live in Southwestern Va. It only has 57K miles on it, picked it up for $11,500 so feel like I got a pretty good deal on it too. As far as I can tell bone stock JCW, but pretty peppy, haven't really stretched it out either as it is pouring the rain here today.

Awesome. Some very low miles, great purchase. Any mod plans or just keeping it stock?

Only thing that I can think of at the moment is I will probably need a front license plate bracket. Here in Va. we have to run front and back unfortunately......

Ya, it seems like a lot of states require that now a day unfortunately. When I lived in Arizona, the one thing I loved about it was not having to run a front plate. Look into the license plate relocation bracket here. It goes into the tow hook receiver, which eliminates the need to drill and allows you to easily remove your plate when you want. Otherwise, enjoy and hope the weather clears up for you soon.
