One of only 415 units brought to America from a worldwide production of just 2,000, this 2006 MINI Cooper S John Cooper Works GP continues to impress with its Space Blue Metallic paint and distinctive silver racing stripes. Marked as #1943 in the exclusive production lineup, each unit received special attention from Bertone in Italy for final assembly. The unique aerodynamic elements include a specialized body kit, carbon fiber rear wing, and GP-specific graphics throughout the exterior. The 18" wheels fitted with 205/40ZR18 tires complete the performance-oriented appearance that separates this GP from ordinary MINI models.
The Panther-Black interior combines Checkmate leather and cloth materials for a sporty yet functional cabin. The bucket seats include heating elements for added comfort during cool weather driving. Where rear seats would normally be found, a large structural strut brace enhances rigidity - a clear indication of this vehicle's performance priorities. Modern appointments include power windows, locks, and mirrors along with air conditioning for year-round comfort. Audio entertainment comes from the AM/FM CD player with added satellite radio capability for extended listening options.
A 1.6-liter supercharged engine produces 214 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque - significantly more than the 168 horsepower in standard Cooper S models. The Getrag 6-speed manual transmission allows for precise gear selection through the console-mounted shifter. Performance suspension components include struts and sway bars at all four corners, working with the mechanical limited-slip differential for maximum traction. The braking system features four-wheel power disc brakes with anti-lock technology, while power steering provides accurate directional control with reduced effort.
