What is Performance Control?
Ordered this on my new Mini Coop 4 door hardtop and I have no idea what it is or what it does. Came with the JCW Exterior package. And explain it to me in Girl terms..I know nothing about cars .

Welcome from Atlanta

Performance Control is really just the traction control as it has so many systems it uses now to keep the car straight, and no tire slip.

I was going to say the three pedals and steering wheel. Passenger will work as well, depending on weather, road characteristics and enthusiasm on that day!
