My Clubman S is being offloaded in Charleston today. I flip flopped to a Clubman S from Mini S at the time I had to sign on the dotted line.

You noted that the cost can add up.
I said 'NO' to xenon and the Convenience Package.
I did choose Comfort Access and the Steering Wheel with controls. That saved $750 over the Convenience package. Decide what you MUST have. I avoided the, "oooh, that'd be cool."
For me the sunroof is a must. I'm trading in a convertible.
Look at the options in the Premium Package.

To see realistic paint colors, go to a dealer or Mini.com and build a car. The MiniUSA.com site has horrible looking paint colors on the screen.

You can blow 40 hours online just building what you want. I did.

I built what I wanted and ordered for $28.5k
Sparkling Silver
6 speed stick
Premium Package
Cold Weather(once you've had heated seats, you'll never do without)
Comfort access(who wants a key!)
Steering Wheel Controls
Chrome Interior
Alarm
Rear Fog
Black Bonnet Stripes
16" tires...I've talked in person to owners who recommended this instead of 17".

Play on the Mini website and build a few...dozen.
