Hello - new member looking for a mini
Hello.
I joined a few years back, intent on getting a mini. Now, I'm back, actively looking for either a Justa, S, or JCW.
My best friend has a Justa 5spd (first body style?), and I love it.
I've driven a '10 JCW here locally that I absolutely love!
Drove an '11 Justa 6spd and loved it too, different beast but still a beast if you know how to drive it.
This car will do commute duty (~80mi/day) and some track time as well (SCCA Solo II, Road Atlanta track days, etc.), as well as some of our N. GA twisties...
I'm leaning toward the '10 JCW 6spd, black, factory JCW, but am not ruling out any other cars. I love the idea of a <20k Justa 6spd. (used)
Thought I'd stop in and say hello, I'm searching and will let y'all know what I end up with. Probably in the next week or so.
As ever was...

The Justa tends to be better classed in the SCCA. That might be something to consider.
...It was for me...
Also, I feel that black cars are tough to own. They heat up quite a lot in the sun, for one. For another, they look fantastic as long as they are super-duper-ultra clean, but they are very tough to keep clean enough. It seems like the instant one speck of dust lands on them they show it sixty-fold. They're great if you like washing cars, but I'm lazy.
