Sad to say the X will be seeing a lot more of this driveway this summer!

drbandkgb 05-11-2011, 08:11 AM From high to low :)
Love the Coopers...
Rons04X 05-11-2011, 08:26 AM Nice!!!...my next door neighbor own one in white. He probably has around $7K dumped into motor work.
NUKEhead 05-11-2011, 08:28 AM Damnn, that thing must flyyyy, I plan on keeping this mostly stock (I like my warranty!) 185 horsepower on a 2700lb car is plenty for me hah
TimRich 05-11-2011, 08:43 AM Nice! You'll have fun slingin that go cart around... :)
J Everett 05-11-2011, 09:21 AM Very nice! I love the Cooper S. I see you got the JCW package; is it engine and suspension? I drove a previous gen Cooper S JCW and the suspension was rock hard and very uncomfortable. I mean, the Cooper S Sport suspension was no slouch, so If I'd ended up getting one I don't think I'd have sprung for the JCW. But the JCW engine package would have been nice.
On a related note, I saw my first Mini Countryman yesterday. It's not exactly what I'd call mini.
Congrats on your new ride!
NUKEhead 05-11-2011, 09:28 AM Thanks! Yea, I'm not the biggest fan of the Countryman either, they did a weird thing with the Cooper S/JCW this year. The JCW is a completely different model (bigger engine and turbo). I got the JCW Package on a Cooper S, so Cooper S engine and suspension, JCW Aerokit, JCW Wheels, red stitched steering wheel, Dynamic Traction Control with Electronic Differential Lock Control.
I wouldn't mind getting a JCW Tune Kit from the dealership when they become available for the 2011 S, that includes CAI, JCW Exhaust, and an engine tune
I still can't wait to go out and find some windy roads though! (The kind that would make me s**T my pants driving the X!)
Broden21 05-11-2011, 10:34 AM haha yes now im not the only one with a mini and a xterra
rjr162 05-11-2011, 10:51 AM I forget which episode in season 4 or 5 (think 5 and an early episode) of top gear they compare the mini works and two or 3 other tuner versions. Pretty sweet setups (I forget which one was pushing 205-210 HP)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using AutoGuide App
J Everett 05-11-2011, 11:52 AM haha yes now im not the only one with a mini and a xterra
Awesome! I may be next. When the X is paid off, I'm looking at a Cooper S or a 350Z for my DD. Wife likes the Cooper, so we'll probably end up with one of those.
NUKEhead 05-11-2011, 01:28 PM haha yes now im not the only one with a mini and a xterra
Wait, you have a Mini? Awesome!
Waittt, you have an Xterra??? Thought I saw yours sold?
NUKEhead 05-11-2011, 01:30 PM Awesome! I may be next. When the X is paid off, I'm looking at a Cooper S or a 350Z for my DD. Wife likes the Cooper, so we'll probably end up with one of those.
While I love Zs... I don't think they're really a DD, the Cooper S has the best of both worlds in my opinion, can't beat being able to do 0-60 in 6 seconds and still get 37 MPG on the highway.
Broden21 05-13-2011, 11:48 AM Wait, you have a Mini? Awesome!
Waittt, you have an Xterra??? Thought I saw yours sold?
yeah i still have the x, and yeah a silver 03 supercharged
NUKEhead 05-17-2011, 08:18 AM yeah i still have the x, and yeah a silver 03 supercharged
Awesome!
