Need Help Deciding on Features!! PLZ

[missmouse7606]

Hi all, I am still in the process of deciding the features for my Cooper S. Is there anyone that can/will tell me about the following:

Computer Nav System -
Is is worth it?
Will my Ipod work through it?
What all does it do?
If I have Parking Assistance and the Computer, the book says a visual aid will come up. Is there a camera or is it something else?

Wheels-
I really want grey/dark silver wheels, but they seem so expensive!! Should I just get stock and then get aftermarket or should I get them through the dealer?


Any other must haves you think I should get for sure?

Thank you!!

if it gets very cold at all where you live, get the cold weather package. It is really a nice feature

definatly get the cold weather package. $500 bucks is worth it. i just ordered min with the premium pck, cold weather and just the comfort access key. i ent cheap on a few things so i have more money to do the JCW stuff to it. As for the Nav i feel the built in ones are rather bad. I have one now that i got in my truck two years ago and it's out dated. It's $500 just for the disk to update it. Just spend $450 in a travel one that up dates atomatically.
