This certainly looks like it would be fun to hoon around in......Marketplace - 2005 MINI Cooper · Awd turbo Honda k series | Facebook

I'd reroute that exhaust and make this thing a real sleeper.

Gone in 16 minutes. What was the asking price?

In reply to rustybugkiller :

$13,999

I don't think it sold, the seller has just revised or replaced the ad. I just looked at it and there's a different video in the last few minutes. Speedometer doesn't work.

$14k seems kinda reasonable considering how much work went into it.

The 6 puck clutch + the fact that it's new enough that it'll have to pass inspection both seem difficult if you want this as a DD

Love everything except the hood exit exhaust.  Agreed on making it a sleepy attack machine.

Clutch might be an issue, but there aren't any inspections here in Michigan. It might make an interesting rally/rallycross machine.

Also, I suspect that K series is capable of holding way, way more boost than the rest of the drivetrain
