I'll take some photos of the inside in a few minutes. Sun won't be in the way around this time.
Looked pretty in the showroom, but the slimy detail stuff they put on it sprayed all over the wheel rims and made hideous spots Looks good now

Thanks for the tip Have about 7 ft extra cord length when I plug to charge. Have a 3-bay garage and 4 outlets in there. No danger of kinking the cord

I would have gone for the Chesterfield Leather if it weren't for the pets though and then I would have picked the black headliner. No matter what interior choices you pick, I think you'll love it. The materials are so much nicer now

Thank you I'm loving this blue. Color is great looking and changes in different lighting. Very happy with the performance of it so far too. From a 1st gen R53 to this F60 SE is a huge evolution in look and styling. Keeping the "Blues Brothers" together

Can't say that I'll be getting great results with mileage on this first tank! Having too much fun playing and getting used to all the new technology.
Got an wireless case today for my iPhone so I can charge it without a USB. This will hold me over until MINI and Apple get together and make CarPlay compatible for those of us that are waiting to upgrade our phones.
Happy Motoring!

On my second day, I was driving and I was receiving a lot of calls back-and-forth, and I found it was unworkable with Apple CarPlay, as it stands. It was completely unable to keep up. However, having gone back to regular iDrive, it's been a pleasure so far.

I have been using a wireless case as well. It works great, but the only problem is that every other time I leave my phone behind in the armrest and have to go back out and get it. Is your Apple CarPlay not working as well as you'd first thought? Are you finding it sluggish and nearly unusable?

Navi with voice commands worked seamlessly as well. Absolutely no complaints about it so far. I'm very happy with it running on ISO 10.3. Checked all my bluetooth settings to make sure I have them running in the background all the time so there's no lag. Maybe check yours to see if that may be an issue. Cell reception was good as well.

I had a lot of apps turned off as not to drained down the battery. In my phone I went into general settings and turned the appropriate ones on to have them run in the background; i.e. iTunes, MINI Connected, iCloud, location. Think that was about it. Might have been a few more but I don't have my phone near me now.

Yeah - my S4 is white as well... My S2000 is gray though... and we were choosing between a white or light gray Countryman so we'd have two of the same color cars regardless . The white one ended up being the best optioned car on their lot - well it was also the most expensive LOL!
