The fact you've specced Santiagos makes park assist almost essential!
I have 19" (aftermarket wheels as the Santis are a pain to clean) and park assist is quite reassuring when you are faced with a tight gap and a high kerb.
Rear cam is useful, mostly in the dark where it's surprisingly good. However don't become overly reliant on it as it can make you a bit lazy when reversing so you tend to neglect side mirrors a bit and have to remind yourself.
Basic Nav is ok. Better value than Pro but still very expensive for what it is (over and above the standard head unit which has most of the features minus nav).
Would I spec it again? Not sure. I might slightly regret it if I didn't but good value it ain't!
I wonder what the price of a similar option is from rival manufacturers?
Sport and Sound pack as suggested is cheap and a bit of an essential in my book. The red calipers stand out well behind the wheels and add a splash of colour. I've not heard the exhaust in the flesh but it's bound to be better than the crappy soundaktor.
The Santis are pretty expensive and a pain to clean but they do look really good.
As for black... I hope you like cleaning!
