Spied: 2013 Mini John Cooper Works GP II Coupe

A Mini John Cooper Works Coupe that’s been offered the GP therapy, caught wearing extremely tiny camouflage. It’s currently been confirmed that the high-functionality Mini JCW GP II hatchback product is coming to the U.S. by the finish of the yearâ€"we’ve even spotted 1 out screeningâ€"but this is the 1st time we’ve caught wind of a Mini JCW Coupe GP II. The Mini is donning a number of GP hallmarks, namely a established of four-spoke wheels and an aggressive rear diffuser.

You could be questioning why we’re referring to the coupe as a GP II, when this would be the 1st time the product has obtained GP package. We doubt that Mini would refer to it only as the “GP” but at the very same time call the three-doorway the “GP II.” It can make far more feeling for Mini to use widespread GP nomenclature, even if carrying out so signifies the coupe’s name helps make a small much less sensation. The genuine Mini JCW GP was somewhat lighter and a bit a lot more strong than a modern day JCW three-door, characteristics we count on will have over to both the new hatchback GP II, as well as this new coupe.

When the initial-era Mini John Cooper Functions GP went on sale in limited numbers again in 2006, the Mini lineup had yet to increase outside of the Cooper hatchback and convertible. Nowadays, Mini’s offerings consist of the Coupe, Roadster, Clubman, and Countryman, and extending the GP upgrades to a second product is effortless and helps make some sensation.
