JCW Package on Automatic S?

Has anyone gotten the JCW Package on an Automatic MCS? I'm just curious as to how much of the "red-stitching" I'm actually going to get.


The specs lists says:

JCW Aero Kit
Dynamic Traction Control
17" Challenge Spoke Wheels
JCW Shift ****
Handbrake Gaiter with red stitching
JCW Steering Wheel with red stitching
JCW Door Sills


My question comes because I know the automatic has paddle shifters and you can't order the JCW "Sport" Steering Wheels because they cannot be fitted with paddle shifters.

I would really love that red stitching on the steering wheel and I'm just curious if anyone's gotten it?




(I know, I know, real men drive standard, I don't care, not my thing right now, I do want to learn eventually though)

I happened to notice that if you configure a JustaCooper with the JCW package on miniusa.com, they actually show the red stitching (I still don't know why they don't with the MCS). So, ignoring the trim color differences, it'll look about like the following, which has a decent amount of that red stitching. This does assume they can use the red-stitched steering wheel on the auto, though. I have no idea if they can. Looks like, at the bare minimum, you'll get the shift boot and the e-brake.

Yeah, I'm a fan of the red stitching. I'm waiting on my stick-shift with the JCW package. I didn't realize the interior touches included more than the sills when I ordered, so that should be a nice unexpected perk.
