As all the other threads on this subject say, it's not confirmed yet.

For what it's worth, the press text posted on the JCW website today says:

"The tuning kit will be available from all authorised MINI dealers worldwide from April 2nd and pricing will be confirmed after the launch in Geneva on March 4th."

@ FLOW MINI

I've posted elsewhere (and maybe even here, there's so many John Cooper Works threads flying around I've lost count!) that I have been told by the MINI communications manager direct that I will know as soon as prices and dates are officially confirmed, and I will of course post them on here.



Also, the situation in the USA is not the same as the one in the UK or elsewhere. I will work to keep you posted.

USA Availability of JCW kit

Last night on "Autoweek" (a program on the "Speed" channel), they said that the US availability would be after the Geneva auto show, later this month; and that it would be sold both as an upgrade kit, and as an option for new car delivery. Full factory warranty would cover both. It sounded as though we would be able to start ordering the option here in the states either in March, or early April. The upgrades were to be available thru "selected" dealerships. No word on the price (although they did mention 200 hp).

My order is up in about 2-3 months. Hopefully I can check the "JCW" box by that time!

Paul,

Trust me 5:30pm I'll be out the door and putting some miles on the clock. Can't wait to get to the magical 1200 miles

Cheers

Michael
