I wouldn't have expected the MINI to win the drag race... and it wasn't even that close! I had a Porsche Cayman for several years with the Auto (PDK, dual-clutch auto) that was spectacularly quick on the gear changes. I just didn't expect the MINI w/ the auto to be that good.
A dual clutch transmission is a wonderful thing. Love the one in my GTI. I think it is great MINI is using them now too.
Well folks here's your chance to catch a GP3 at a bargain price. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2021-mini-cooper-john-cooper-works-gp/
Chuck before I read the post I saw you posted it and the picture and for a second I thought the GTI had been replaced by a GP
If I bought one of those I'd have to buy a sawzall to remove the dog eared wing. There is a Justa with the right stuff to make an old fart happy at the local dealer. I sure hope someone buys it before I weaken. Heck I can't afford it anywho. Hope my GTI doesn't learn I've got wandering eyes. If it does it may refuse to start.
