I have many questions about the U.S. MINI Cooper options and specifications. Anyone have any ideas on the following:
1. Is it possible to delete an item in one of the option packages? (I don't think I want to get the rear spoiler in the Sport Package, for example.)
2. Why are all season run flat tires available with the Cooper S but not listed for the Cooper? I would like to get 16 inch all season run flat tires.
3. Does anyone know what the following options will cost: mudflaps (dealer option?), lumbar support, faux wood trim, on-board computer?
4. Is the Cooper a "50-state" emissions vehicle? Or is it necessary to spec California emissions?
5. How much does the sunroof intrude on headroom?
6. If the on-board computer is not included, will there be an outside temperature indicator still?
7. Do U.S. spec cars have a glovebox?
8. Which colors are classified as "metallic paint," and which are not?
