I could but I would not be able to bring the car back without paying taxes. Plus it will be driving on the wrong side.
I heard if you self import, the car comes out about the same. And there certainly would be some hassles including a lack of warranty.
To give u an example of the option prices,
Gps is $8 k
Variable steering is $2 k
Folding mirrors is $2 k

While i was at the track and Hard braking. My rear end seems to dance on me. Do you guys have any solution or suggestions for that? or do your cars even do this. I know you guys track R56 but was wondering.
If you looks at about 3min 40 secs you will see it dance. I know all the weight transfer is to the front. I have CO with 32 way adjustments will this help or other maybe harder springs in the front.

I just wanted to know if the R56 fair better with this and since you guys have more track time then me in the mini maybe you have a solution or ideas. It not a big deal as long as you compensate for it and are expecting it, But it would be great if you can eliminate it.

Part of my issue was the imbalance in braking since I have the 6 pot Wilwoods up front. I have had the car re-coded to the JCW standard which accounts for larger front brakes and increased the rear disk to JCW standard.
You may wish to have the car corner balanced since you can adjust with the COs. This way you can optimize the weight. The guys at Swift recommends the ride height be the same at all four corners.
I guess you need to play with it to get the best perfromance.

Oh, the brake dance!
Can't resist a bad pun.
Yes, it is there in the R56. I have had some success with a lower the rear tire pressure. I run one psi less in the rear. You could try up to 2 psi less. Another option is to use a less aggressive brake pad in the rear, such as the stock MINI pad.
Now my last time out I had no brake dance issues and the only things that were different were the wheels and tires. I am suspicious that this may be caused by the tires which is why running a psi or 2 less in the rear helps. There may be some tread squirm going on under braking that is causing this and my new tires maybe are less prone to it. A bit of a guess with that one.
