MINI Configuration (7/3/08)

Here's how my MINI is currently configured. I still have some time to make up my mind on a couple of items:

• MINI Clubman S, Pepper White body, top and mirrors, black rear trim
• White turn signals
• Premium Package
  includes: Dual Pane Panoramic Sunroof, Auto AC w/active carbon air filter, MINI HiFi Sound System
• Sport Package
  includes: Sport Suspension, Xeon Headlamps w/Powerwashers, 17" Alloy Web-Spoke Wheels
• Cold Weather Package
  includes: Heated Power Folding Mirrors, Heated washer jets, Heated front seats
• Convenience Package
  includes: Auto Dimming Rearview Mirror, Auto Rain Sensor, Auto Headlamps, Universal Garage Door Opener, Keyless Go Comfort Access, Center Arm Rest, Comfort Bluetooth and USB/iPod Adaptor, Multi-function Sport Leather Steering Wheel
• 6-Speed Manual Transmission
• Rear fog lamp
• Parking Distance control
• Mud flaps

Now, I know everyone is wondering, "Why are you including the cold weather package when you live in Phoenix, AZ?" Frankly, I like the thought of the power folding mirrors and the package would be nice for the eventual resale value.

I am planning a trip to the MINI dealer in Scottsdale this weekend to look over the internal and external chrome packages - I just might trade them for the cold weather or add to the list - not sure yet.

Also, I had orginally intended on getting the leather (Gravity Tuscan) interior but decided against it for the standard cloth interior. Again, I'll look at that particular interior this weekend to make a final decision.

I'll be adding LoJack with early warning add-on when the vehicle arrives in Phoenix.

Stay tuned....
