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...
The Cooper S Convertible R57 of my girlfriend's "Mademoiselle XH"
Midnight Black, JCW aerokit,Chili pack, Rooster red/piano black/ Full chekered flag, Black Multispokes R108
That last one is a great idea, we'll be trying it this summer as well.

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.
I know I'm late responding but I rarely venture into cabrio section but I just wanted to say....
THOSE ARE THE COOLEST BABY SEATS I've ever seen.

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.
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).
OMG that is exactly how I want mine, Horizon Blue / Hot Chocolate S, HC Lounge, Premium, Sport, Cold Weather... obviously, not sure what else you got... so jealous.
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

Thanks, that's good to know, NAV too? that's awesome. I configed my with stripes and a meshed scuttle, driving lights would be cool too.
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.
