So after the unfortunate events of this:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/r56-hatch-talk-2007/91828-got-msfw-but-not-lsd-apparently.html
My dealer is giving me $500 in free accessories. I was planning on having a pretty much performance oriented MCS but now I guess I get to splurg a little. Now I'm not sure yet if this is factory or dealer installed options so as of now I'm going off of the Accessories tab on the website builder. I need some help deciding whats worth it, so if you were in my situation, what would you spend it on?
*if possible please put the price of each of the options
Thanks everyone and Enjoy

 

I think the Comfort Access system is an amazingly cool feature- $500

Lets you unlock your car doors with out taking the key out of your pocket when your with in 5 feet of the car and it also alows you to start the car by just hitting the Engine Start/Stop Button. Very nifty!

 

I think you have to put the key remote in a little pocket on the dash before you can start the Mini. Which doesn't make the it any easier than a regular key.

 

With the comfort access, you don't have to put the key in the slot. It just has to be on you, or within range of the car. That way you don't have to click a fob to unlock the car or insert anything to start it. I got the option for my upcoming MCS. Totally cool idea.

But if you are talking about dealer installed accessories, I would go for the invible bra. It can save your paint job from chips and road hazards.

 

i dont know if this sounds lame but it was one of the selling factors for me...im a teen so anything like in HS is like WOAHHHHHH haha and starting your car with your keys in your pocket and unlocking it...nicee

 

I would get the driving lamps, but you won't have any money left over. You actually have to pay a couple hundred more for installation.

 

get the uprated disc for the brakes

 

Go for the driving lights, they're great and look good too.

 

I would be tempted to go for the Universal Trunk Protection ($285). I frequently have to put a lot of muddy soccer clothes and equipment in the back of my car.

Some others:
Glove box organizer ($32)
Boot Box ($80)


Driving lamps would be cool to, but I would probably buy them aftermarket and put them on myself.

...if you are getting black, it probably won't be too noticeable.
