I like the lack grille with the chrome surround. Nice touch.

So the toggles are in where our clocks are now?

There are now two sets of toggles...five below where they are now, and a set up above.

As seen in the video, the seat-back release lever for front seats has been moved much higher...that's nice. I believe the rear seat releases are more conveniently located, too. And Cooper S side skirts on the Cooper...very nice!!

I also like the fact that the whole entire trunk area is now lined, not clad with scratch prone hard plastic.
