Greetings everyone! Long time lurker of the forum and we've recently taken the delivery of a 2024 Mini Cooper S Seaside edition in Caribbean Aqua and absolutely love it! Not the first time we have owned a Mini (last one being a 2017 Mini Cooper S with JCW active exhaust), but in the last 5 years we've forgotten how good one is to drive!
Traded in our 2004 Mercedes CLK55 AMG and got a great price for it. Only 300 miles in the last week of ownership, but many complements on the color and white detailing of the car! My understanding is that it's 1 of 500 coming into USA. We're aiming to keep it for at least 5 years. The only upgrade we did was swapping out the black mirror caps for Night Jack caps......we had to because we're originally from the UK :-)
Considering upgrading the exhaust, but the JCW Pro exhaust with active flap is not compatible due to the Euro 6 emissions.
