After having so much fun last weekend playing with that F56 with the JCW tuning kit, I decided to pull the trigger and order a 2016 MINI Cooper S in Deep Blue Metallic with the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit and John Cooper Works Pro Coil-Over Suspension from Vista MINI!! I will post more details on the new build soon!
Unfortunately, this also means I have to sell my 2006 MINI Cooper S, Scooter :(. As much as I just LOVE this MINI, my wife does not share the same desire as I do to own 3 MINIs at this time, so I sadly have to put Scooter up for sale :(. To say this saddens me is an understatement. Many of my friends will understand… I have had SO much fun with this MINI and have met SO many awesome people as a result of this little car. I really hope I can find a good home for him within the Sunshine MINIs community so I can still get to see him from time to time ;).
I will be selling Scooter with all of the go-fast goodies installed on the car including the fully adjustable coil-over suspension, JCW exhaust and JCW intake AND will also include all of the original sport suspension parts, original airbox and other original parts as well as 2 sets of extra racing wheels as part of a complete package. The car is currently setup with a suspension configuration that is great on the street and track. Handles LIKE A DREAM and is mechanically sound. You will be hard-pressed to find another 2006 MINI in better condition.

Before I post this to the non-MINI community, I will be offering a priced-to-sell asking price of $8,999 for the above package to someone from the MINI Community in hopes of keeping the car in the club. If you know someone that is looking for a SOLID, meticulously maintained MINI, please let them know.
The car will be available in mid-August when my new MINI arrives at the dealership. In the meantime, if anyone is interested, I will be accepting a small $500 deposit to reserve the car until that time.
