    Welp, I see BMW has completely destroyed the John Cooper Works name. Again.

    Of all the 3rd gen cars I think it's the best looking. Not really MINI any more, but as a car it's not bad.

    Yes John Cooper Works are now packages that can be added to standard cars. Think BMW would allow you to get a 328 with the M interior package?

    Ugly(er). The dash is especially disappointing... They should have just spiced up the round vents instead of killing them.

    Well with the added bulk perhaps the JCW option and the HP would be a good thing. Just Say'n.

    Btw, I like it for what it is and could be a good cruiser on the I80/I70/I76/I90 going eastbound from Colorado as well as a good mountain cruiser. Not ever going to be an R53 or R56 Hardtop. :)
