The 2006 Mini Cooper JCW GP is our BringATrailer auction pick of the day:
from 2006. Take our word from spending three days with 700 Minis and their gallivanting owners: Any GP grants you instant respect.
On Bring a Trailer , there are so many unattainable supercars it's starting to look like the duPont Registry. So, today, we’re delighted to feature aThe first-gen R53 Mini was a retro design that outlasted its direct competitors, the Volkswagen New Beetle and the Fiat 500. Evolutionary changes mean this half-German Brit looks just as attractive and relevant as a brand-new Mini. It's one of 415 GPs sold in the U.S. out of 2000 worldwide.
. Stock, it pulled 0.90 g on the skidpad and hit 60 mph in 5.9 seconds—a half-second quicker than a JCW. Every GP came in Thunder Blue with red mirror caps.. This month, despite $5 premium gas, Mini owners trekked from Burlington, Vermont, to BMW's factory in Spartanburg, South Carolina. GP cars from every generation stood out among the sea of Coopers—especially in the back woods of Tennessee, where Mini isn't exactly a household name.
At $31,150 brand-new, the 2006 GP was priced almost $10,000 more than a JCW. The current GP stickers for $45,570. Even in the crazy used-car market, we'll bet this GP will go for a comparatively miniature-size price when the auction ends on Wednesday, August 3.
