Aesthetically, the JCW convertible is distinguished by its aggressive aero package; conventional 17-inch wheels; and also extra-fat, centrally installed exhaust ideas. As on the hardtop, Rebel Green paint is set aside for the JCW variation of the exchangeable and, like lesser Cooper convertibles, the fully automated soft top can be ordered in black or a black-and-gray Union Jack pattern; it raises or decreases in 18 seconds.

We checked the existing JCW hardtop last year and also videotaped a zero-to-60-mph time of six seconds flat; Mini claims that the exchangeable, which includes 180-- 190 pounds of weight, must call for 6.3 or 6.4 seconds, depending on the transmission (the automatic is quicker). Full blast is a mentioned 150 mph with the manual, 149 with the automatic.

Time will inform if the Cooper's new physical body, total with included architectural supporting under the doorsills as well as engine bay, will be far better able to deal with the efficiency responsibilities of the JCW.
