2008 MCS options list?

I am looking for a used 2008 MCS. Does anyone know where I can find a list of all options so I can make a list of the options that are important to me?

Any options you think are "must-have"? So far my list is:

Bluetooth
iPod USB kit
Heated seats

Some of my specific questions about options:
  • Was there an ipod-usb integration option offered in 2008?
  • Is the center armrest an option or added as aftermarket product?
  • Which tires should I look for or avoid to get the smoothest ride?
  • Do all MCs come with run-flat tires? I would prefer normal tires since they are cheaper to replace if needed.
Thanks!

I am picking up my brg2 on monday! I fell completely in love with the car when i bought my first one (pepper white), now im getting my second

sunroof, heated seats, black roof/mirrors/stripes, bluetooth/ipod, fog lights, armrest

I can't wait!


the armrest can be added on. im getting one of the cars i saw on the lot that didnt come with an armrest. they are adding it in for like $450.

Yes. You could get the iPod/Bluetooth option. That comes with a USB port and a "Y" cable. Or you might get the dealer installed option when you get an iPod connector in the secret compartment.

It was an option, it also came with one of the packages

All MCSs came with runflat tires, but there's nothing to stop you (or the former owner) from replacing them with real tires.
