I never really quite understood why/how women spend thousands of dollars on Louis Vuitton handbags and luggage, and don’t even get me started on men that buy that stuff. I’m all for buying luxury goods but come on, LV stuff is just plain ugly! Maybe I should start a handbag line with my initials all over it and sell it for big bucks to desperate housewives of ____ (insert city of your choice).
Anyways, the point of this post is to shed light on the newly released Louis Vuitton Mini Cooper by German car tuning company CoverEFX. I didn’t think the Mini Cooper could possibly be made any gayer but they achieved it; I’m just kidding about the Cooper being gay, it is actually quite a fun little car and I used to own one.
The CoverEFX Mini Cooper JWC (John Cooper Works) comes wrapped in vinyl with the familiar brown and gold Louis Vuitton colors with some sort of symbols all over it, instead of the usual LV symbols. To complete the “look”, the Cooper rides on black and gold 17” OZ LM rims and Toyo tires.
To increase the masculinity of the Cooper, CoverEFX upgraded the ecu and added a 2.5” exhaust system; a larger sports air filter, sports catalyst, and a Milltek down pipe were also added. The end result is a very impressive metrosexual horsepower rating of 236 HP (up from 211) and 258 pound-feet of torque (up from 206). A second tuning package is also available that increases the horsepower to 252 and 282 pound-feet of torque.
If you want to look fashionable like a fruit-bag cruising the streets of downtown then the CoverEFX Mini Cooper JWC is the perfect car for you

At the Chicago Auto Show Dodge Company introduced the “charged” version of its updated sedan Charger,termed the SRT8.
