2017 Countryman JCW

Been a while since I was on here...had a 2002 Mini Cooper S and sold it in 2013. Well I miss my MINI.....

I want to get a 2017 Countryman with the new 2.0L BMW engine and platform. Is there any information as to when this will be available in the USA?

Thanks

New F60 Countryman should be hitting dealers around March, the new PHEV version will hit in June. I suspect the JCW version won't arrive until summer.

MotoringFile is usually pretty accurate, but I didn't see any mention of JCW release in the article.

Good luck with the wait for a JCW, looking at how long they took with F56 and F54s compared to the original model launch, I think you'll be waiting until early 2018 tbh.

That would probably be my guess, it will be a 2018 model for sure. Late 2017/early 2018.
