When I got my MC a couple of years back (lease) I didn't know what I was ordering really... I kinda settled for a car on the lot-- it was a lease, so I didn't care too much.

It prepped me for my MCS order. I got EVERYTHING exactly how I wanted it this time, and am looking forward to living with my MCS for the next 4-6 years if all goes well!

The ONE option that comes to mind that I did not have on my MC that I was DYING to have on my MCS was the HiFi audio option. I listen to my ipod ALL the time in my car and the factory audio is not the greatest.

i talked to a friend and he said he wished he had ordered the upgrade audio package because he wasn't happy with the stock system

I'll tell you this much stockae92: sport package is a must (includes traction control, xenon lights, clear rear signal lights), HIFI is a must, and multifunction steering (MFSW) is a must.

Everything else is optional. I'd personally add an LSD option to it as well whether you drive hard or not. Also adding an aero package or a JCW aero package is a must in my opinion. Good lucking shopping.

wandrur and I didnt mean to 'jack this thread. our cars were boat buddies.

On second thought Id prob get full RR leather. the cloth seems cheap, like all the other interior materials like the headliner and carpets, compared to the first gen cars.
