#1246 of 1305 buying a Mini in LA by mgannon Jul 28, 2009 (3:59 pm)
I'm looking to buy a 2009 mini clubman s with premium and convenience packages in California very soon.. next week or so. The msrp is between 30,100 - 32,500 for the 2 I am considering. I am relocating from the east coast and want to do the deal before I arrive... I've already test driven and know what I want. I intend to buy it outright - cash in full. Is this at all advantageous for me, buying outright over the phone? Any strategies for getting the price down a bit? (Also CA dealers are doing .9% apr so the cars are kind of selling there...) thanks for any tips... Replies to this message: g0thamite (Jul 28, 2009 5:40 pm) daveangelro (Aug 09, 2009 5:25 pm)

Replying to: mgannon (Jul 28, 2009 3:59 pm) Historically MINI's are not negotiable but I think there is some wiggle room in today's economy - I know that in my case $500 was knocked off the price. Also, the .9 % interest rate is only good through this Friday. It may extend into August, but you will not know that until the first of the month. Even the salespersons, I mean, Motoring Assistants, will not know till then. Good luck!

Replying to: nyccarguy (Jul 21, 2009 7:35 pm) I've owned a RSX type S which I miss alot. So since I've owned Acura Integs and an Integ GSR . They discontinued making the RSX brand(big Mistake) So now after trying the BMW 1 which surprised me as it's fast and a fun ride ,I almost bought it. (you need to own a gas station though)    However ,I went to the 2010 TSX and decided after I took it up to 70 Miles an hour in 3rd and went into 6th this was the car for my wife Rather than the BMW or Lexus IS. Acura's are bullet proof, never had a problem with any of them.                           How ever, I need a HB and I'm waitng on the TDI VW Golf. ( Iknow realiability) but I need a Home Depot car.                         Get the Acura.

#1250 of 1305 Convertible Cooper by luvthesuninca Aug 01, 2009 (10:46 pm)
Is anybody buying the convertible Cooper or Cooper S? I haven't seen anybody asking about it recently. Wondering if many people have purchased or leased one and how you like it! Thanks!!

Replying to: luvthesuninca (Aug 01, 2009 10:46 pm) I just (three weeks now) bought a Cooper S convertible. It has a few small issues - nothing major. But the fun of driving open or close has been immense. I am still finding excuses to run errands so that I can drive the car   Let me know if you need any other information.

Replying to: 2xsubaru (Aug 03, 2009 10:15 am) Thanks! What are the small issues? Did you buy or lease? What colors? Replies to this message: 2xsubaru (Aug 06, 2009 7:40 am)

Replying to: luvthesuninca (Aug 05, 2009 9:26 pm) I bought a 09 Cooper S Cabrio - Chilli Red, Checkered Black interior, with Sports and Cold weather pakcage, Sports suspension, Multifunction steering wheel, Auto AC and a few other interior options.   Issues are really small - a bit of rattle/hum from behind the driver's side door. It doesn't happen always and IMO caused by a combination of the stiffer sports suspension and bad roads where I live. Haven't taken it to the dealership yet. No other problems and 700 miles of happy driving (>13hours open top )

Replying to: amiie (Jul 06, 2009 12:55 pm) Did you find someone to purchase the Mini from in the SF area? I'm finding it difficult to get down from sticker price.... Thanks Replies to this message: padolf (Aug 11, 2009 12:59 pm)

Replying to: mgannon (Jul 28, 2009 3:59 pm) Hey! I don't know if you've already purchased your MINI, but we are selling our 2008 Clubman S with the convenience, premium, sport, and cold weather packages. It's the Hot Chocolate color with the dual sunroof and tan leather interior and chrome accents. We are in Pittsburgh, PA. Car is perfect, nothing wrong! 15,500 miles. It's like it's brand new. Feel free to let me know if you are interested. It's listed on AutoTrader.com.
