My wife is on a business trip in Toronto right now. I was wondering if there is anything specific to Canada that I can't get here in the US that I should tell her to go by and get.

Probably not, but she's out of town for my birthday, so she's feeling guilty! I want to take advantage of it!

I got some nice "6 speed" T shirts from a Canadian dealer - they just have a "from above" view of the MCS shifter in the center of the front chest area. Maybe not so good for you if you have the 5 speed ...

It seems that each country has some stuff that is unique; if your wife is close to a dealership she should check out what is on offer (assuming she can recognise stuff you don't yet have!)

Just went to the MINI UK site and they show about a dozen
different roof graphics from the factory. Can you get one of the
UK only roof graphics on a US MINI?

Tell her if she can bring you one heated windshield, some Leatherette silver grey upholstery and a MINI steering wheel equipped with the CVT paddles

ASC for the regular Cooper. Also they moved the turn signal indicator to the Speedometer.

They offer the rear and side sunshades as accessories. I ordered some and am having them ship them too me.
