Just Brought My First Mini Home!
2007 MCS, Pepper White / Red Leather. 62k miles. There's an iPod cable above the dashboard, but I don't think it has bluetooth. Sport package though. (What does sport mode get me?) Planning on autocrossing it, and thoroughly enjoying the A/C in SoCal this summer. (First car I've had that has decent AC)
Here are some pics:

Sport mode should get you better throttle response, heavier steering feel, possibly a higher boost limit (not sure on that) and higher shift points if your car has an automatic.
It may give you "burble and pop" on overrun--which is MINI's way of saying that they've set it up purposely to bang and spit in the exhaust when you coast in gear with the throttle closed. I personally don't like it, it makes the car sound like it's badly tuned, and the feature was eliminated at one point so your car might not have it.
