New MCS or used JCW?

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Hello all, I’ve got a ’06 MCS with Sport and Convenience packages on order. I really would have wanted the JCW package but can’t swing the cost right now. Anyway, I’ve been looking around and found a few preowned JCW’s on the market that would put me at less than the cost of a new MCS. My question for you fine folks is what is the consensus on say and ’03 JCW with less than 20k mi versus a brand new MCS? [/SIZE][/FONT]

With the gearing change for the '05 model, I would say the '06 MCS is probably as quick an an '03 JCW. Stick with the '06, you have a warranty, a better ride (they've tweeked the suspension over the years) and better build quality.
