I'll update this thread when I learn more.

Reason: Ok after a few days of endless research, picture taking, and scouring the web for photos I have finally come up with the MINI
Sounds great. You didn't ask for advice, but here's my 2 cents. I don't know what the standard stereo is like, but I find the HIFI disappointing. I like to listen loud and the speakers can't handle it, although at low(er) volume, the sound is decent. I went with the cloth/leather seat combo and think it is well worth it. Good luck!

Consider the anthracite headliner for a more uniform look, since you have a dark car and the base dark interior trim/seats. I'm still kicking myself because I didn't get it! Also, take a long hard look at the hyper sport body kit to make sure you like it, as it's not the same as the JCW kit.
Welcome. You mechanical car is hot. Your style stuff sounds good too. You might think about the stock wheels and then just replacing them, rather than painting them. Go cool, but go light too. For my part, leather is the only thing to sit on . . . personnal preference but when everything else is so sharp, don't but if your butt.

Yeah the lounge leather is an extra 400 dollars i'm not sure I want to spend. I also do not like how smudgy the piano black panels get.
So the carbon punch leather was as close as I get.
