The buzz over at mini2.com is that there will be a couple new options and add-ons in the UK available in late February and March. Whether or not these will be factory options in the US is yet to be determined. I imagine at the very least one could order them through a US dealer much like you can now with parts like the driver side shelf. Here's the list:

  • Chrome mirrors (ordered from factory with the car as opposed to bought from the dealer)
  • A chrome grill for the MCS (MINIUSA has initially said this won't be a US option but at the very least there will now be a Chrome grill that fits an MCS correctly)
  • A new console with armrest available in black or silver (with/without a phone holder for various mobile phones)

While I can't promise that this info is correct I'm guessing that it's probably pretty close.
