You forgot to mention the S2000 when talking about beautiful cars!

Is a 2.9 engine reliable? What mileage can i expect? Mine has 40k miles

What if it’s of and we can’t turn it on because our battery is dead?

hmmm your JCW is very low torq, + you got a lot of mod on.... (should be 280nm minimum from factory and should be more with your mod?), my cooper S F56 with OPF, full from factory has 300nm oO (tested on dyn)

Cool vid, very helpful. Thanks :) and if you made more vid from past to now, hopefully you turned off the auto focus on your cam and set it manually cause I thought I was about to have a seizure watching this.

Just a friendly tip. Get a lav mic. Thanks for thr tips

How's the auto transmission on this?

I have a 06 RSX TYPE S with under 110k . Its a dream to drive, so much fun, im never letting go 😅😂

How's the maintenance for this car after 100,000km ?

1. What engine oil do u use? In case u use other than bmw original oil. 2. What about engine cooling? Is the factory one is enough if there is heat 40 degrees celcius or more? 3. Interesting to know more about 2017 jcw automatic transmission. Of course if u know smthn about it. Maintainance, oil, lifetime. Thanks

I could tell at the beginning of the video you’re by Fremont. lol the tunnel time at 680

i just took my 20 year old 2004 rsx base into the canadian rockies on a 2500 km journey. the vtec was amazing to experience at 140 km+/h going up the steep inclines. i rarely drive this car that fast and having endless highways in sight for the rsx to go 120 km+ for hours at a time was great for cleaning up the internals of this 220k km mileage car.

Does this device still usable in 2024? Like in F56?

I have a 2005 base model with 207k on it. Bought it about 5 years ago 140k on it for $2,900

Great car... speak facts, though, not opinions.

It's very confusing how chassis braces change anything. It would mean that the factory braces actually twist under certain conditions which is confusing because they are made out of metal.

Pops are terrible

My name is sam oates bideford and demi my dog

I just got one for 8k with 70k miles

The stock Cooper S is 215hp. They are underrated.

Told my wife i was keeping the jcw stock.... not so sure anymore😂

The normal civic those years didnt come in that body style. That's how you know its an si. No badges needed. Everyone knows its an si. People who dont know dont care what you are driving anyways.

The price on these has basically doubled in a year 😢 nicer used models are easily at ten gs on autotrader. My area Craigslist is useless. I love in south Texas. I thibk the majority of cars even used offerings down here are new because cars cant survive torrential flooding and hurricanes 😂😂😂 when I buy my next car I will probably travel or have it delivered down here adding to the purchase😢

Great little car. Makes me wonder whether I should have gone for a manual, too!

987.2 2.9L is a very smart choice as new engine yet only one in line-up that is non DFI. Hydraulic steering final years never equaled. I swear prior 987.1 engine sounded better per Variocam changes at 5k n 6k. Sigh. While lacking torque of bigger 911 motors, a supremely balanced vehicle whose key strength is in the curves. Love my 99 996.1 cable throttle manual 911, yet 987.2 PDK I also own is a sweetheart (3rd Boxsterexperience), good build quality, and likely far lower running costs than 911.

I’ve had my 3.4L ‘12 Boxster S for about 7 months now and i’m considering making a youtube channel of my drives in it. There truly isn’t alot of content out there on this gen and it’s the exact one that’s going up in value right now.

2009 no IMS

Mid engine

Put sport steering wheel on mine low paddles better

Very nice car. I purchased a 987.2 Boxster S with a PDK. My only regret is the same as yours, should have got the manual. I just purchased a 986.2 2004 Base with a manual. The car is Carmona red metallic which I love. It has a full saddle leather interior. I'm really enjoying both cars. Enjoyed the video.

The car is just rock just floating on the wind. It’s put down real good. Get the proper rubber boys.🎉

I also have the rattling. Thought it was passenger airbag near glove box but it's actually the top right corner past the AC vents. Easy fix just gotta wedge something in there between the windshield

What city is that drive? SA area? Looks very nice.

It will look mutch beter with the gold weels.

Hi Kevin, Just got an 04 RSX auto with very low miles. What exactly would you recommend I do for the suspension? Please keep in mind, I just like to cruise in it, not race it. I wouldn't mind improving the handling at all, I just don't want to feel every bump or pothole on the road. Thanks!

Iknow this video is 3 yrs old but good to know this car is good even thou it’s not type R I might check this car. Out for 121k miles for 4,500 clean inside out just have to double check everything runs good

there is no high cam profile vtec in the base model lol

Hi Kevin @5:39 I see the Auto Start Stop function by default. May I ask if you could change this to successful with the Free version of Bimmercode AND the OBD reader? its sooo irritating that i have to press the tab to manually turn off the auto start stop everytime i get into the car and stat it in the morning.

I have a 17 Mini Cooper S and recently got a 2010 Cayman S. Funny to hear you had a JCW before this. Love both cars and it's a toss up which to drive each day. Waiting for some nicer weather to really enjoy the Cayman.

Do you have to pay for BimmerCode ?

Crazy to see her in the wild WOW😮

Watching this feels like the background is fake and then the truck comes around the corner before the 1 min mark at first glance it’s like the ladders are actually a player name icon like you’d see in a video game

Would you change it into race header?

If you're thinking of getting a 987.2, here's some considerations on you options list: 1) Interior color. The tan looks great...until you get reflections off the dashboard on to the windshield and that's super annoying. I'm surprised Porsche didn't spec black under the windshield. Maybe there's a treatment to diffuse the reflections. 2) Headlights. The Xenon lights do a superior job lighting the road and they swivel with the steering which is super helpful at night. 3) Sound system. You're buying the car to listen to the engine but it's nice to have a respectable stereo. If you have the Bose you have much better sound but it steals storage room from behind your head. The base stereo is tragic. At least get Sound Package Plus if you can. 4) Windscreen. Kind of a requirement if you want to have a normal conversation with the top down. 5) Auto Climate control. An embarrassment this was even an option in such an expensive car but you can live without it if you're a fiddler. 6) Wheels. You really want the 18" wheels like shown on this car and it's the sweet spot in the wheel lineup. 7) PDK. Introduced in 2009, you'll notice this is still Porsche's go-to transmission and you'll want it, too. Yeah. Yeah. No Manual? Get over it. Common Problems: 1) Soft top. Watch to make sure the top folds back naturally into the side window grooves and not over the grooves, else you'll need to tighten the elastic bands that perform this function (a cheap fix but you need to be careful). New top is $$$. 2) Water pump. Just make sure the timing belt job included a new water pump. 3) Pneumatic trunk props. Easily replaced but you don't want to be the one to have the fronk lid fall on your head. 4) Battery. It's great to install a H7 in the car vs an H6 but this is a job for experts who know how to bridge the battery so you don't lose everything. A number of locking options can only be reset by someone with dealer capability so you don't want to go through a reprogramming cycle. 5) Brakes. A new set will last ~40k unless you track and hard-drive the car...and then a proper full set will set you back ~$1,800 per axle (assuming you want a full set and not just pads) so knowing the # of mm's left isn't trivial. All in all: 987.2 = Maximum ratio Fun / Cost to be had.

Hi Kelvin, can I pls ask if i plug this one connector on to my mini and adjust all the features that I like to change, the mini service centre would know when I bring the car in for service as I would break the service plan that I still got like 2 years left.:(

I have a question, when i open the valves and start driving and after like 1 and a half minutes the valve closes, is thar how its supposed to be?
