Sure looks like it. I always have liked the combination when I saw it with the JCW Aero Kit... I would have never picked that combination, bit now it's something that I would highly consider if I'm adding a 2nd Convertible...

Very awesome! My fiance is looking at a Cooper with the rooster red interior and the astro black exterior. It looks very nice.

Some pics from my JCW Cabrio.
I got just a pretty cheap cam at home, so I tried to improve them with Photoshop.





















The Cab has an immense advantage

Very nice pics. Now you need the CF Diffuser on the back to finish off your JCW Aero Kit...

My new Horizon Blue Mini

Traded in my hardtop for this convertible. Just picked it up yesterday. Man, I love this car. It was 47 Degrees and I attempted top down highway driving with no windscreen. With the heated seats and heater blowing it was a great ride. Very comfortable in the cockpit.

When I installed them in my Convertible, I can't tell you the looks I got from the other dads in the neighbourhood. Well, installling any type of car seat in a convertible with the roof down is absolutely easy. Now installing a product with the Recaro solder pads on it, it catches everyones eyes as they walk by.

http://www.recarochildseat.com/Recar...ort.pro?sNav=0

Even the service department was shocked when I took my R5 in for some minor tweak shortly after pickup.

Now it does comes with some bad vibes or maybe it's the combination of a convertible and the Recaro seats with kids in it with the top down that cause the bad vibes. I won't bore everyone with the store, just link to it (if you're curious).

http://www.northamericanmotoring.com...88-post12.html

Regardless, they are still the best seats around for kids.

Updated: Looks like SEARS.COM has the cheapest price right now I could find. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_SP100A157S624886P?keyword=recaro

Well I just traded in my 2004 MINI Cooper Indie Blue and finally went the convertible route. Attached is a pic of my 2010 MINI Cooper S Convertible.

Still snowy up here in New Jersey so keeping it garaged as much as possible!

I got everything except for the JCW additions., Premium, Sport, Cold Weather, Nav system, sat radio etc...

Worth every penny so far! Drives great and tons of fun features. The only thing I am contemplating is to get the JCW Aero Kit and Carbon Fiber bonnet scoop installed.

Congrats on the new vert!! I too am a top down, heated seats, driver. If and when you decide to add a windscreen (I did about 2 months after buying the MINI) check out ebay and there are several dealers that will sell them brand new at a lower cost. The windscreen makes it even more comfortable and stops the reverse flow of air. The cabin stays much warmer. It folds in about 15 seconds and takes very little room in the trunk. I didn't think the windbloceker was worth it when I ordered the MINI but I was wrong.

Happy Motoring

I Had the nav on my old one.. definitely nice to have it again, and it is a major improvement. Also, having a nice big screen with GPS Maps / iPhone integration (displays all my songs / albums on the gps screen and my contact list for bluetooth dialing). I believe it was added in the past few models but boy is it nice!

Also, thanks for the tip on the wind deflector. I didn't think it would be necessary at the time but perhaps you are right.
