NEW owner and member JCW WC50 #297

I just bought a JCW WC50 in Toronto Downtown. I love my car and was looking for things I could change in it to get maybe some extra power...
The car is awesome and I will be putting up some pictures!
I'm sure they had one coming in to Mini Vaughan soon.
Shouldn't the car come with alcantara steering wheel?
I have leather so I was wondering if I should call mini Downtown and...

I would love for some feedback on what engine changes people have made to their JCWs.
Thanks

It should.

Mine came with leather steering wheel and I complained to my dealer, citing BMW press release and press photos. Apparently replacing the steering wheel is a dealers job, but BMW Nordic didn't inform my dealer about this.
