I ordered Cooper S GP but ..

[Figarro]

So , I ordered Mini Cooper S GP, my dealer told me that it cost about 40.000€ BUT importer is going to put 44-46.000€ price tag on it and I calceled my order, it cost too much ... hello it is still mini and I get Mini Cooper S works and it cost only 36000-40000€
depending on what extra I want more (xenon,airconditoin ect).

So I am going to keep my 2005 Impreza WRX even I miss Cooper S

Sorry to hear your importer has raised the GP price so much. Some of the dealers (not MINI USA) are doing the same thing over here. I guess they will get away with it given the limited supply.

Could you not buy one in the UK and import it yourself?

And why not just get a regular MCS? Or even a Works if you want to? Save yourself a boat load of money, and still have an MCS!

Now I am thinking MCS because I do not need those extra horsepower (and I know because my WRX got now 246-horsepower) and I live in the city where are speedlimits
(30-80km/h) so I can not use those powers.

What do think of:

MCS PW/PW
mirrors PW (or crome ??)
Chilipack
17" R99 polish finished
black cloth/lether
Anthracite roof lining and interior
But should it be: whole aerodynamic "spoilers" or just aero side skirts because I like MCS
front mask and little bit hate that aerodynamic black front mask or should I just leave car like that no aerodynamic parts??

Cronopacket
crome trim

WHAT ELSE ???

Well, the Harmon Kardon ICE is good, I'd also go with the Visibilty pack, auto wipers and lights, very handy in the Arctic Circle I gather , heated screen and seats too

In Finland Chilipack is xenon headlights, manual aircondition, heated seats, 17" wheels,
visibily packets, half lether seats ect ..it is almost perfect list. But harmon Kardon is okey and i put those in my list. How about leather recaros .. could I get those in cloth ..

Only go for the aero kit if you are NOT planning to drive the car in winter. Judging on what it's like in Stockholm you will just end up snow ploughing and damaging the trim. Same goes for any kind of lowering

Get the Recaro Seat option , it's brilliant ,really cool .
