'Fil what's the deal with the '09 MINI Sport Pkg?

It has no price on the configurator, and shows as unavailble until Dec, '08. It also shows DTC (which is what, IIRC< the JCW model uses to replace the LSD), so will an LSD still be available along with DTC?

The sport pkg is on hold until December because of the launch of DTC on the Cooper S at that time. You can get the other items a la carte for around $1250-ish. I'm guessing the package will be $1500 or $1750 once it is available, and another $500 if you want 17" webspokes.

On the Cooper S only, you can get DTC and the traditional LSD, at least for this model year.

Hrmph. Now might be the time to get a Clubman S, or do you mean that the Clubman S will NOT be available with the DTC and LSD?

Cooper S / Clubman S will be the same... at least for 2009 you can get both, no clue about 2010.
