R56 '08 Configurator Is Up
I think there is already a bug in the new configurator! It shows both the xenons and sport suspension as part of the new sport package, whose price jumped up to $1500. The old sport package was $1400 and included xenons instead of sport suspension. There is no way they will include both xenons and sport suspension for $100 more in the new sport package.
What is the USB?

My end of model year '07 ran about $1650 less than an '08, and the functionality I lost in doing so appears to be the USB connection (with bluetooth) and the windows closing with one-touch buttons.
I'm definitely not unhappy. Especially considering that I'll get it multiple months earlier this way. Probably will cost me if/when I try to sell the car.

Quick, before they fix it, go to Clubman S and Performance. Check out that AWESOME kid's doodle of the Clubman jumping onto the track.... I'm no artist, but I think I could have even drawn a better Clubman
i actually configured the same automobile as my 07 with hifi, cold, premium. since hifi is included in premium for 08. i would have come in about 800 cheaper than my 07 even by paying an extra 250 for the multi steering wheel. no good.
I also have a nfr cooper which i got in Oct. photos to come, as i just got mine and haven't had a chance to get a picture. I can tell you this: I've named it Christine for obvious reasons. I was going for a boys name until a spat of misbehaving occurred within the first month of me owning.
I could have saved $100 by waiting, but I would have had to wait even longer than I am now. So I'm not terribly upset that I didn't wait. (Though I am a bit annoyed at my MA who said it'd have been about $500-$600 more.) Especially since the only difference would have been an auto-up driver's side window. I'll be motoring around with both windows down so I'm going to have to hold the button either way.
Mine is $300 less. The HiFi is now free in the Premium, the MFSW is still in Conv (some said it wasn't but it's there), and the English Oak is now free (with the Tuscan leather?). Saves $900. My wheels went up $150, the 2 packages up $200, paint/chromeline/anthracite up $50 each. I can't find the white turn signals ($100) anywhere. And the base price is unchanged (I thought it would go up).

My car would have cost an extra $550 - and for that money i would have gotten a HD-Radio, USB, and auto-up windows. Add in the fact that I would have paid MSRP on an 08 and that number jumps up a little.
My car would have been over $2K more if I would have waited for an 08. One thing to keep in mind, even though the Premium Package contains the HiFi, you still would have to add the Sirius and HD radio ala carte, if you so desired.
