Loaded 2020 JCW vs 2019 Knight's Edition
Hi all.... I'm new to the forum, and this is my first post; a question. I am wondering whether a loaded 2020 JCW Hardtop 2-Door would have any advantages, in performance or features, over the 2019 Knight's Edition. Or for that matter, whether the reverse might be true. It can be hard to get consistent stats on performance, and I wonder whether simply comparing features will give sufficient information. Oh, and this is presuming they have the same mileage. I should also add, the aesthetics of this particular build of 2020 Hardtop matches the Knight's Edition. Thanks in advance! :)

Welcome: I saw a JCW Knight's Edition in person and don't believe there's any performance advantage except it has the Pro exhaust factory installed. Most of the differences are esthetic. Checkered bezel, blacked out badge etc.
Hopefully a Knight's owner will chime in. Good luck on your purchase. |
I've got a KE and given the choice at the same price, I'd go with the fully loaded JCW. I got an incredible deal on mine because someone backed out of a sale after it was delivered. Except for the exhaust, you won't see any difference in performance but a fully loaded JCW will have a nicer interior trim level.

Thank you both for your perspective. As I said, the aesthetics of the 2020 are comparable to the Knight's Edition. And it seems to be a distinctive design from that year, though it isn't named as a special edition. As you stated, with respect to the interior, leather in the 2020 but not the KE, and I imagine other features vary. Also, the only Knight's Edition available in my area is very low mileage so priced out of my target range, making the decision easier! :)
Thanks again... |
Manual vs Automatic is the choice...I would go Black Knight with the Manual Tranny and then add a WAVETRAC LSD
