no good pics yet (bought it dec. 1) but if you picture gabe's, from motoringfile, new JCW MCS....you pretty much have mine. with a few differences. i'm going with the black jcw 18' wheels as my summer shoes. have 16' on now. and my bonnet scoop is chrome to match the chrome grill piping. have the JCW grill though. chrome side mirrors as well. essentially, i switched up what gabe did and put all the chrome on my car so i could have my beloved black wheels (instead of having silver wheels and making the car as black as i could).

interior is tan leather/chrome trim/piano black accent

the biggest difference is that i got an automatic and, despite MINI USA not officially announcing an automatic JCW kit yet, i have a JCW kit on my car. after finding this out and going back and forth being MINI USA and Morristown, i'm essentially just waiting for MINI USA to get the ECU software for auto-trans approved by the EPA and just update my car when it's released. fingers crossed there are no parts change but all signs point to "no."

ANYWAY....in the north nj area (equal distance from morristown and prestige). would love to know of some great roads that north nj mini owners drive and about any meet-ups, etc.

 

hey dude...how are you doing...congrads on the mini.....

i actually just picked up my baby last saturday 2/2....technically its my 2nd mini, my first i bought last year in june/july....but after 4 or 5 trips to the service dept at presitge for various problems....they did a trade assist for me...and put me into a new one...
