2006 JCW - I'm in love
 

Greetings from the happiest driver in Phoenix! I just purchased my Chile Red/Black JCW from a local guy who bought it from a dealer in Tenn. 5500 miles, so just broken in. He described it as "a boxful of giggles" and I have to agree.

I'm in the process of selling my RX8 - a really nice car, but just not a Mini. The JCW package is terrific and yes, all that torque just makes me smile.

My first mini experience was back in the 70's when I drove a friend's S. It had been used for SCCA racing and I still remember what a hoot it was to drive.

This looks like a great group - looking forward to learning more.

Hi Magyo!

I waiting for my 06 CR/W JCW to arrive sometime in November. Enjoy your JCW...they are fun!

Motor on!

Just got my CR/B MCS/JCW at the end of August; 1900 miles and Hoot isn't a big enough word!:grin: Every time I get north of 6000 rpm(within the posted speed limit of course), I just say, Damnnnn!!!:grin:

As of today my cr/wht MCS is off the coast of maine and on its way to the port so i guess another week or so

Wooootttt!:thumbsup: Congrats on the new smile machine...:grin: :nod:

Donna:cool: :grin: :cool:

I've had my JCW for a little over 3 months now and it just keeps getting better everytime I drive it. And when the JCW airbox opens up at 4500 rpms and the supercharger really starts to sing..... I am getting goose-bumps just writing about it. :grin:

I am sure you not only obeyed the speed limit above 6K rpm, you also didn't go above 4500 rpm prior to the recomended break in period.:nod:

That is correct sir! (kind of) 4500 for the first 500 mi or so then 5000 for pretty much the rest of the way. Sure, there were a couple of outbursts after 1000 mi.:grin: Now at 2000 mi and all hell has broken loose since 1250 mi.:cool: (within the posted speed limit of course)

Thanks good to hear.... POST SOME PICS!!!
