IT'S HERE!!!
 
Took delivery of my '08 JCW/MCSC today. AB with white bonnet stripes. Went with the bullet wheels.Faster than hell but I can't wait to get the suspension mods on as well as my "youification" doo dads.After two weeks of being Miniless I'm back.

congrats mowse! can't wait to see some photos! the JCW's are great... power everywhere but more important, smooth smooth smooth with that very distinctive (sounds like no other car on the road) supercharger whine. if you have the JCW suspension on yours as well, icing on the cake. A wonderful and complete driver's car. Enjoy! :thumbsup:

I wish they had JCW suspension for the cabrio
 
They only offered this for the coupe. I knew the suspension on the cabrio is not as tight as the coupe but the power of the JCW really makes it's shortcomings evident after coming out of my '05 MCS coupe.I'm waiting for my M7 USS, an H-Sport rear sway bar, and a Whiteline strut tower brace to get here to stiffen this thing up. That should do the trick.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it Greg! I'm certainly enjoying your old car!

The Green Machine!
 
Alex! I miss that bad boy! Glad it went to a good home and look forward to seeing both of you this summer. Just stuck those chkrd mirror caps on today as well as another set of aux gauges and a Mini Mania JCW CAI replacement filter. Suspension Viagra is next!

Nice! Did you have any problems with the mirrors or did that write-up make things go smoothly?

Congrats :thumbsup:

Chkrd Mirror caps
 
The directions were great, however, beyond screwing on my chkrd valve stems I don't mess with anything. I asked to pals to try but they were both spooked and didn't want to try. So I figured I'd have to pony up and pay the dealership afterall. After they did it, they didn't charge me! Cool!

Wow! You can't beat free service. Glad it worked out. Hope to see you and the car later in the summer.
