I have a semi for JCW Coopers. But what ruins my day is everytime I price one out, it's a tad below $40k

 

thats my problem too, I'd settle for a MCS for high 20s, low 30s nicely equipped with some JCW goodies. there are some gunmetal JCW rims that are just bad ass.

 

i like the one with the british flag on the roof :0

 

Is the reliability on these things still iffy? If I had my hands on a turbo model, I'd have a field day on it

 

for 07+ it's a brand new engine so it's hard to say. stock boost levels are around 12psi. with the jcw stage 1 kit going up to 14.5-15.5psi.

however, there are some crazy tuners testing a GT25 turbo going as high as 19psi but no one is saying how much power it's making but estimated well over 250hp.

 

the MCS i built on the site came out to $38k :ugh: :chuckles:

 

maybe, but the rear end is a deal breaker, as it looks pretty terrible. :a:

As for the cooper s, my wife tried to tell me that she doesn't like them because "there's nothing to them." We drive a Civic and an Accord for crying out loud. I mean, it's not like those are bursting with personality. :doh:

 

she might like it after the test drive but if she doesn't like the design, not much can be done

 

yeah, that's what I'm thinking. We've never actually checked them out in person together. I think she's just thinking on a whole dollar/cubic foot scale or something. Like why would she spend so much on something so small maybe? h:
