New Carbon MINI 4 Door Hardtop Does Impress

I was able to see the new Carbon MINI special edition 4 door hardtop in person the other day and I really liked it.  So much so that I asked my wife if she wanted to trade in her Countryman for it lol.IMG_1185

Unfortunately, it was raining when I stopped by Vista MINI to check it out so my photos are not the best, but I really liked the JCW Pro touches that were added to the exterior of the car.IMG_1188Of course the most interesting part of the MINI is that it is the first 4 door hardtop that comes equipped with the JCW Pro Tuning Kit Carbon Exhaust with the famous “Button ‘O Fun”!!!IMG_1177Since the JCW Pro Tuning Kit came from the factory, I finally saw where the official mounting location for the “Button ‘O Fun” actually was – in the passenger cup holder!!IMG_1174Apparently in the original packaging, a round foam insert is included that fits perfectly in the cup holder (who would have thought!?!?)IMG_1176

This MINI is very well equipped with the “MINI Carbon Edition” package that includes DDC, Comfort Access, Sunroof, Heated seats, LED lights, and HK Sound.  Of course the JCW interior and exterior bits come standard too.  For $37,100, this MINI is not for everyone, but for those looking for a unique special edition MINI in a 4 door configuration, this may just be the right car.IMG_1187I was informed that shortly after I stopped by to snap these pictures, this MINI sold!  I know a few other dealers may still have one or two left so if you are on the fence about this car, you may want to jump on it sooner than later! 11222824_10207406342464036_3059299589079523847_o
