welcome, you've come to the right place. Not sure about what options you can or can't order, you should goto the MINIUSA web site and use the configure option to build a car. that should give all the options or deletions you can get.

thanks! yea i checked out their site. but in reality almost all these cars came with packages and options that are factory installed.

i just want a standard JCW without any options. i guess the only way to get one is to order one?

did you try to build a car? I know that the JCW has to have some standard options that is what makes it a JCW.

yea i mean i don't even need to build it, i just want a JCW with standard options with no exta. but everything in the inventory came with extra options. i think 35k to 42k is too steep for a MINI... looking to get a JCW for a little above invoice price, i was wondering if it is possible.

I would think it is possible to order one. you just need to goto the dealer and ask.

I know Morristown MINI in north jersey are vendors. most vendors give discounts on parts for NAM members but not sure about a discount on a whole car.

Brian,

I would look at Certified MINIs or the EXEC MINIs...there might be an 08 or 09 JCW within range...

Personally...I would look at an "S"...Xenon lights, Heated Seats, No Sunroof...and MOD as follows due to warranty:

1. Air Intake
2. Sport or Viper Stripes
3. Side Stripes
4. Rally Lights
5. Blacken the belt line
6. Plasti-Dip, Plasti-Dip, and more Plasti-Dip
7. Non-Runflats
8. Interior

Warranty runs out:

Engine, Suspension, Exhaust

Brian,

Ed's car look "Slower-Faster" or "Faster-Slower" since hanging with the Big Boys of "DRIVE-N-EAT"
