Kelley Blue Book Reviews The "Maximus Of Minis"

That's how Kelley Blue Book characterizes the 2013 MINI John Cooper Works GP. Its impressions after its first drive:
We had a chance to take this hot hatch for a quick spin in the hills high above Puerto Rico and were impressed overall with the GP's performance. While its off-the-line performance is similar to that of the lower-priced and higher-powered MazdaSpeed3, unlike Mazda's deviant the 2013 JCW GP doesn't have torque steer that demands a gorilla grip on the steering wheel during hard acceleration. Most impressive is the GP's rock-solid stability in corners and its tenacious braking power.
