For those of you that enjoy the long shows, you are in for a treat. We actually go on quite a bit on the upcoming factory JCW car, what we think about it and what pricing we think it will come in at. We also discus the MINI challenge car a bit too. Oh yea, and Gabe’s recent trip the Chicago Auto Show.
The flash back at the beginning? Yea, Gabe’s dead on prediction for the new JCW Car, from Woof 30!. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, he is just that good.
Speaking of, Gabe will be at the BMW/MINIUSA Press Junket in California all week. Keep an eye out for pictures and thoughts about the Clubman. And, keep an eye on Bimmerfile for the BMW news.

A fun show, not really much new about the Factory car but still enjoyable.
Still believe Mini if off the mark not making this car visually different. It’s true that there are those that like pulling badges off their car to be a wolf in sheep clothing but then again I wonder how successfully any of the M series would be if they looked exactly like the others in their series? I also wonder how enthused a M buyer would be if they were not only offered a car that looks exactly like the main series car but then had to piece together the car with a standard aero kit and buy a suspension for it.
No doubt its going to be a nice car but have some rather series reservations about it.
Pong rules.

Good show. I’m with DB, I’m really feeling the need for a JCW Clubman, with the suspension & aero kits.
Can you spare circa 35K?
Hi Guys… Love the show as always, but I have a suggestion for a badge – just for us Top Gear Fans – How about “I am the Stig” Would go very well on my JCW S. 🙂

LOVE IT!
Hey guys, been catching up on shows since the move to Germany still has me without ‘net access. Don’t know if it’s been confirmed yet (or if anyone cares) but the JCW Challenge car shown at Frankfurt had 17 inch wheels with 215/45 tires on it 🙂
