...a 2009 BMW 135i Dinan S2. After extensive research and attempts at getting a 2nd gen MCS JCW I opted for a car that is a little larger and with nearly twice as much horsepower. And it was approximately the same monthly lease.

BTW, if anyone is in search of a JCW leather dashboard in carbon with black stitching I am selling my three piece set. (see the Marketplace)

 

You are getting a 135 w/Dinan from a dealer? What comes in the S2 Pkg? That is going to be a fun ride. Post some pix!

 

Yes, there are a few select BMW dealers that are authorized to install DINAN products while maintaining the factory warranty. (Essentially DINAN will match the OEM warranty.) The S2 is just a chip reflash resulting in 384Hp and 412 lb-ft torque. Will be picking up the car in Munich the last week of August. I was able to lease it for under $500 (includes tax) no money down. MINI wanted over $500 for a JCW without tax. I ordered it with Premium, M-Sport, Cold, tiptronic, iPod adapter, leather, and parking sensors. Black with red leather.

 

Nice choice of car(s) be sure to post some pictures!
