LOL that's why I edited my post, sorry. My shiny new post reflects my true feelings.

I didn't get a chance to see what was really in the package at first, I assumed it kitted out a non-JCW completely to make it look like a JCW without the all importamt tune and performance mods. Seeing what was offered, hell they offer this stuff individually, so it's a good value.

You are a MINI owner, so that makes you awesome, obviously

That's what I like to hear but honestly the only reason I would get it is because you get a body kit and rims for 2k that's an awesome deal. Im gonna try to get stuff that cover up the jcw badges

If you do get the JCW appearance package you won't have any JCW badges to cover up.

JCW badges for the tuning kit go on the upper passenger side grill. And opposite the Cooper S on the boot.

For a factory JCW, the badges go on the lower drivers side grill and on the boot in place of the Cooper S.

I have to agree its a great deal for what you get. I wish it had been available like that when I bought my car.

You think they will let me add packages on delivery day before I sign the paperwork?

No. The only thing the dealer is going to do is sell you things that they can install like stripes, roof racks, wheels, JCW CF parts etc and then charge you crazy prices for their labor.

Best bet it to get everything installed on your car from the factory or at the port/VDC. That way its part of your financing or lease and included in the vehicles warranty.

Damn well I hope I save on the premium package and 6 year maintenance so I can grab some wheels and tires for my baby since that's all I want from the jcw package
