Mini with the works

December 11, 2009 / You’re a handsome devil. What’s your name?

What you need to know: supercharged, 1.6 liters, four cylinders, 214 horses

Seen on Main Street earlier in the week. It’s the Mini Cooper S with John Cooper Works GP tuning kit (supercharger, wheels, brakes, suspension, bits of red). They have a Flickr group all of their own. Naturally, the front brake calipers are rouge. I mean, how could you not? Would be a dereliction of duty.
