Mini to Show New High-Performance GP II at Mini United Gathering in May [New York Auto Show]

We previously confirmed that Mini was working on a sequel to the hard-core 2006 John Cooper Works GP, and now the company has announced the new car will debut at the annual Mini United event this May. Details on the GP II, as Mini is calling it, are scarce. However, based on the previous GP, expect the new one to be lighter and slightly more powerful than the 208-hp Mini Cooper S JCW. Also, expect the GP II to be built in extremely limited numbers—only 415 of the original GPs made it to our shores. from Car and Driver Blog http://blog.caranddriver.com
