The folks over at MotoringAuthority have posted some new Spy Shots of the upcoming GP II. Even with the MINI Swirly Camouflage you can get a better idea of the rear wing and diffuser. Head over to MotorAuthority for the full gallery and come back to leave some comments.
It's really funny when they do this. In some cases the camo actually does a pretty good job of obfuscating the new feature/profile/whatever. But in this case, it's like somebody used a highlighter on it. It actually makes the features MORE obvious than if they had just driven a black car around with the new body kit and wing on it. If they really wanted to disguise it, they should just spray the new stuff down with primer. Would look just like every other fast & furious car on the street with crappy body kits on them.
Well ya'll need to lower your standards and give free drivers licenses to every wingnut who can't drive. And encourage them all to drive 40mph in the left lane.
So... why cover the entire roof in the swirly stuff? I feel like getting my car wrapped in that stuff just to see if anyone takes 'spy photos' of my car
...and lots of "go fast" Audi's in the left lane of the Autobahn the primered up rice rockets wouldn't last long running 220 kliks on that road:eek6:
Beyond the rear lower diffuser integrated into the rear fascia, what's the GP v2.0 suppose to allure over the standard hatch? - Erik
There is the rear wing, side skirts will be different too it appears. Probably will be lighter, most likely will not have back seats. Wheels will be specific to type and not readily available at the parts counter without GP2 VIN. DR Kay Segler also mentioned something about it being 12 seconds a lap faster around the ring so thats got everyone speculation suspension changes.
Came across the Car & Drive Article this morning: * 2013 Mini John Cooper Works GP Hatchback Photos and Info – News – Car and Driver - Erik

I took these pictures during my trip from Woodcliff Lake, NJ to Philadelphia, PA for MTTS. Yup...that is Batman. Interior isn't final yet so don't make too many judgements. Those are the best pictures I could get, it was hard with the sun being so bright with the glare to get a good shot.
