Last year I bought my 2012 Cooper HT off the lot. It was equipped with Cold Weather Package, Metallic Paint, Bluetooth/iPod adapter and the Rear (only) Fog light. I wanted some more stuff so I ordered a 2013 Cooper HT this past October and it arrived last Weds . This time I made no mistake and ordered a car to my spec it includes:

2013 Cooper HT
Lightning Blue Metallic paint
White Indicators
Cold Weather Package
MINI Connected
Navigation System
Sirius Radio
Front Fog Lights
Rear Fog Light
Xenon Headlamps
Retractable HL washers
Toffee Color Line
English Oak Trim
Sport Seats
16" S-Winder wheels.

It's come to my attention that there aren't many well optioned Coopers out there, so if you've got one raise your hand and tell us what you've got!

 

Thats a good spec! :D

If I moved to the US my spec cooper was working out about $25k

 

I bought my 2011 Cooper off the lot too. I had to have a manual, but was flexible on the other options. I ended up with the dealer executive car that came with Polar Beige Leather, Chrome-Line Interior, White Turn Signal Lights, Dynamic Traction Control, Rear Fog Lamp and the following packages:

Convenience Package:
Universal Garage Door Opener, Comfort Access Keyless Entry, Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror, Rain Sensor and Auto Headlights, Bluetooth and USB/iPod Adapter

Cold Weather Package:
Heated Front Seats, Power folding Mirrors, Heated Mirrors and Washer Jets, Retractable Headlight Washers

Premium Package:
Dual Pane Panoramic Sunroof, Automatic Climate Control, Harman/Kardon Premium Sound

The funny thing is that my plan was to go with a bare bones car, but I use most of these options every day. No regrets.

 

Very nice option set! There aren't many of us out there.

 

not sure if my wife's car will qualify as well optioned (2011 Clubbie, 1-owner with 7K miles off the lot, sold as Mini NEXT CPO):
* ZCV Convenience Package
* ZCW Cold Weather Package
* ZPP Premium Package
* 0386 Roof rails
* 205 STEPTRONIC Automatic Transmission
* 381 Roof in Body Color
* 473 Center Armrest
* 481 Sports Seats
* T8 Punch Leather
* 507 Park Distance Control
* 0655 SIRIUS radio
* MET Metallic Paint
* Bumper Protection (door handles also)


Wish it had front/rear fogs and xenon/adaptive headlights.

 

My 2011 Justa has these options:

1. USB port
2. Sport stripes

(big hook comes out and drags her off into the wings....)

Nicely optioned MINI, Amancuso!

 

Very very similar to my 2010....only minus the USB port!

In all seriousness though, I have a nice little Garmin GPS system that I occasionally will use on long trips, upgraded the 15" wheels to 17" sportier wheels from Tire Rack. I'm going to add the Sirius Radio option, but I don't know if I want to activate it through the stock radio (have the dealer install it) or just buy a portable unit and a 2yr subscription.

I live in California, so the cold weather package isn't necessary, the premium package doesn't really suit me, I would have liked the sports package, but seeing as I bought the car myself (21 yr old college student at the time) and am making the payments myself, getting all extra packages wasn't really an option for me. I love my Justa the way it is, and I've customized it to my liking. Perhaps on my next MINI I will have a stable enough source of income to buy one with ALL the options on it

 

I think ours is nicely optioned, we have all the options we want and none we don't.

Lightning Blue
Sports Package (16" Wheels, DSC, Sports Seats, Spoiler, Front Fogs)
Sport Suspension
Rear Fogs
Cloth/Leather seats
Autodimming mirror/Garage Door opener
Auto A/C

 

Mine was as follows

MINI Cooper R56 - Chili Red
Sport Pack with Black Bonnet Stripes
Cold Weather Package
Roof & Mirror Caps in body colour
Chrome Line Exterior
Black Xenon Lights
White Indicator Lenses
Front & Rear Fogs
Cloth Sports Seats, I cant understand why you get leatherette in the states, nasty stuff!
Premium Package 1
Chrome Line Interior
Piano Black Dash
Carbon Black Colour Line

$25,200

 

Very nice set up!

Joanie, we will not put you in the wings! Your MINI is set up for pure twisties enjoyment!

Rob, a lot of respect to you! Since you're in college, I'd go with getting Sirius the cheapest way possible. Does your MINI have the aux port? If so just get a nice slim unit, mount it somewhere unobtrusive and be done with it!

I can understand that, which is why I left the rain sensing wipers/auto headlights and the autodimming stuff off my list. MINI's are so personalizable (If that's even a word!)

Don't dis the leatherette. I chose it over cloth due to it's longevity and ease of keeping clean. No stains or spill marks in my MINI! Do you have a Hampton now?

 

We have a moderately optioned CM but have set the groundwork to order our 2nd (not a replacement). It will be a Roadster with the following:

Midnight Black
Rooster Red Color Line
Cold Weather Package
JCW Interior Package
Auto Trans
Front Fog Lights
17" Black Star Bullet Wheels
HK Audio + Sirius
Don't think I left anything off.

 

I bet I have the least optioned car on the forum! I have exactly ZERO options and i still love her!

 

Ryan,

No options is good too. After all it is a MINI!!!!!

 

exactly my thoughts. Plus I have some super wheels on it. Although after seeing everone's well optioned Mini, it makes me wish i made more money

 

I have never seen it, I will hopefully be in the states in June next year so will call at a dealership for a look

Yea I have the Hampton, its VERY well appointed :D

 

Very nice, indeed.
Where are you planning on visiting?

Here is a picture of my leatherette sport seats.

 

Mine is well-optioned... to my tastes!

"Justa" Cooper
Ice blue, white roof and mirrors
Manual trans
15" twin-spoke wheels with non-runflat tires
White bonnet stripes
Sport suspension
Cloth sport seats

That's it. If I had it to do over again, I might have gotten a couple more things, but it's fine for me just the way it is.

 

I do have the aux port! Thanks for the advice that sounds like it would definitely be the best option for me!

It's great to see all these members that own Justa's and take such pride in ownership. I hate it when people say Justa owners aren't "real mini people". That's definitely not the case! Someday I may buy an "S" model, but I don't ever see myself selling my current MINI! Happy motoring everyone!

 

my 07' has lounge leather, piano black interior, sunroof, cold weather package, and auto trans.

 

Eastern side again

Plan to go to Kentucky, Tennessee that kinda direction :D

 

I'm glad I got the cloth seats.

 

2012 roadster

Reef blue ( my personal favorite option)

Tech pack w/o nav
( my iPhone maps works just fine)

Cold weather pack

Automatic

Black jack scuttled and mirror caps

Oh and I had the chrome pedal covers put on.

Still trying for custom graphic no luck

 

Consider getting front fog lights instead of xenon headlights -- I'm glad I did. The fogs add substantial illumination close in front of your car when you want it, but without the fall-off-to-black-blindness problem of the xenons at the edge of their range. And you can turn off the fogs when you don't want them.

 

Love me some S-Winders!

Try to visit the Dragon (Eastern Tennessee/Western NC) Minis on the Dragon is in May, Try to aim for then and you'll get a great show!



Very nice Noreen! Make sure you get a good phone holder for your Navi-Phone!

 

Not sure if I'm allowed to post because it's my GF's. But nonetheless, hers is optioned as follows:

Bought off the lot (well brought in from another dealer)
2012 Cooper HT Manual
Bayswater Package in Kite Blue,
Cold Weather,
Premium

The only things its missing are Mini Connected with Nav, Anthracite headliner, and Xenons with headlamp washers. Overall it's a very beautifully spec'd Justa which suits her perfectly (80 mile commute at 40+ mpgs). I believe it's sticker was about 26-27k but our OTD price was around 24k.

Didn't realize that Mini's had so much downforce that they could be driven upside down! I have no idea why they aren't properly oriented because they are on my computer...
