The only regret I have is not trying to haggle for a set of 17" Black Star Bullet wheels/an alarm.

I absolutely love the PW/B color scheme, as it's neutral but still a little different, and I'm happy with the options mine came with. It was a CPO, so I didn't have a lot of say except for things that could be dealer added.

I bought mine off the lot. It had everything I wanted, the convenience package, H/K and auto. I originally wanted Blue, but my partner wanted the Spice Orange. I love the color and glad we got it, you never see any the same color here.

I do wish I would have gotten the Auto A/C, had it in my other car and I do miss it. I love the comfort access and the auto dimming mirror.

Would have liked to have gotten the MINI connected, but I like the Speedo look better. I also love the sunroof feature of the cabrio.

Only thing I regret is that I didnt buy one sooner. Could of saved myself A LOT of money in the process. But everytime I went to go and look at one that was out of town, it would sell within days of finding it. Saw the one I have now at the local dealership, test drove it, and went and got it my next day off. Just glad to be getting better MPG and to have a 6 Speed again.

I wish I had bought a Cooper S. It's not just the extra power but I love the scoop and spoiler and it would have saved me a lot of work swapping hoods and buying a spoiler. That kinda leads to another regret in I wish I had saved up and got either a jcw or m7 spoiler instead of the cooper s one.

I regret buying my Focus and not the Clubman I had my eyes on. Because the Focus has just too many problems. Sync is garbage, the transmission sucks, interior materials aren't that great, fit and finish is, well, it's a Ford... But I'm glad I get to drive our Clubbie pretty frequently.
