My only regret is not going turbo. Dumb-dumb-dumb.

 

Same story here. I really wish that certain non-package options, once selected in a certain quantity, would provide a reduced do-it-yourself package price. Alas, such is not the case. But it would be nice.

 

Didn't have second thoughts after ordering......but after driving my 2008 MCS a while (in rain) I wish I had sprung for the auto sensing windshield wipers. The intermittent setting is just "never right" for conditions. Also, in hindsight, I wish I had opted for the built-in Sirius........I have, use, and like, my aftermarket Sirius, but it's obviously an "add on" and sometimes gets in the way of things. No regrets about not getting the NAV... I use a Garmin NUVI when needed, otherwise it's stored in the secret compartment.

 

I just got home from driving in the pouring rain and I love love the auto wiper function and I do love the Sirius satellite. I hated regular radio anyways but Sirius is so fun. I can't wait to see what this merger brings. I too use my Garmin Nuvi and it's fine for my needs. I would have loved to get the Nav to but I had already exceeded my planned price limit

 

It's kind of like cable TV - It would be nice if you could only pay for the channels you actually want, but they instead put it in packages where you end up buying junk you don't really want just to have access to the fun stuff.

 

EXACTLY!!

Farging bastidges.

 

New guy here trying to learn my way around Minis. What is MFSW?

 

Multi Function Steering Wheel, no Cruise Control without it.

Other side has Stereo Volume and Channel buttons w/telephone call/answer as well.

 

I was lucky enough to buy my 2008 MCS brand new off the lot (without ordering it) because the factory sent the dealership an extra. I had totalled my VW the week before, but had been shopping for a mini for about 6 months prior. The Mini only came with the premium package, which I'm so happy with, but I do wish sometimes I could have added more.

Either way, I love the way my PW/Blk looks and the price was EXTREMELY right so I can't complain too much!

 

Pilotart, thanks. I could have sat the rest of the day trying to figure that out unless firing up the configurator.

We certainly have become an acronym laden society, haven't we?

 

I still configure each day even after I got mine, lol. I added mine up with everything since I hate that wish I had feeling. The only thing I regret is getting the brushed alum wish I had went with the black trim. Other than that I use all my features and don't regret getting one of them.

 

The only thing that I have found to not be worth the money is the HD radio. I also wish I would have gotten rear fogs.

 

I ordered all the packages that were available (ie no sport package) and then some... I only added one thing after I ordered. white turn signals. I love every option I got only wish I could have got the lounge leather but at that point I was over $29k so maybe next time
