Any word on special features for the 2008 convertible? I’m talking about something like the silver roof/stripes that were available for the 2006 hardtops. Is this the role of the Sidewalk package? I was hoping for something new for 2008.

That’s a nice looking MINI Convertible. I kind of dig the White Silver.

The sidewalk pkge is a great value and the seats/wheels are outstanding. Making it a hard choice between ordering a SW JCW or a stage one R56

also note that the jcw package dropped in price 300 bucks… and while leather and sport and premium packages increased… the sidewalk has indeed stayed the same, making it a GREAT buy! JCW PLUS SIDEWALK=MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Not only has the JCW Package dropped $300 but it doesn’t specify the $1500 Sport Package as being required.

it will be… 17s are mandatory due to JCW brakes

Is there any chance of a retractable hard top option on the R57?
MINIAC

17s are mandatory due to JCW brakes

16″ R94 Bridge-spoke wheels are approved for use with JCW brakes.

ummmmmmm. Why would anybody even bother if they were patient they would be rewarded with a new nu MINI in about a year or less? Hard to think – One of my last post got shot into some other galaxy because I called Mocha chocklate Clubman a less desirable word? Does anybody else besides me think all the mini colors are getting tired and outdated? I plan on getting a Clubman at some point but I’m having trouble because it’s nu but It’s colors have been over used to death. I don’t want to see my cars color all the time- Am I right?

No red lounge leather for the ’08 R52. What a disappointment. The malt leather seating is pretty nice but the color combination in the Sidewalk interior look pretty horrific to me. I would love Astro Black/Piano Black dash/Chrome line/Red lounge leather. I may just have to go with the BMW after all…

That sidewalk package is so nice, it almost makes me want a convertible.

I’m wondering why no one else has mentioned this, but according to that PDF, nearly every single option (and package) has gone up by $50 to $100 from the 2007 prices (with the wheels all going up by $150!).

MINI may not have raised the base price, but the option price increases are going to hurt anyone looking for a loaded up MCC or MCSC.

I wonder if the same price hikes are going to be seen in the hardtops??? If so, it makes sense to grab a 2007 while you still can.

Oh, and the nav system has increased by $300 (going from $1,700 to $2,000)! That seems like an aweful big price increase if it’s still the same old 1st gen MKIV nav system (vs. the newer version in the 2nd gen cars).
