I dealt with New Country Mini in Hartford, CT
 
Since car is being built and will likely be delivered in September, one can't lock in the current low financing rates since they are only valid through 8/31. Experience tells me rates will still be there next month too, but at this point it is a little bit of "who knows." Hopefully I will get that 1.9%

Despite being completely stripped, it is quite well equipped. What more do you need? Pretty sweet deal in my book. Find a used MINI at this price. I'm loving it.

I think the base was ~26K (S with sunroof package and the $&(** arm rest that isn't included but is a good think with a manual trans).
 
Is ~1000K reasonable to ask them to knock off the MSRP?
 
I'll buy via their financing so the % rate is locked in.
 
Any other areas I can get them to knock some $$ off?
 
No trade in (and I wouldn't negotiate it with the purchase deal).
 
I'm going to ask the sales man to write up the contract and send it to me so I'm not wasting a Saturday looking at the finance person and listening to their pitch. Yawn!

Mini prices? 2010? by mmea

Hi!
I'm about to shop around for a new Mini.
 
What is usually the reduction that could be made below the msrp, especially that 2010 models will be soon aboard?
 
Can somebody help me with the name of a dealer where good deals could be made in DC (or even NYC) area?

Prestige Mini in Mahwah, NJ claims to have the largest inventory in the country - but last week told me that they had only 10 cars left (after cash for clunkers and a good sales month). They are awaiting information and delivery of their 2010 cars. There's also Westchester Mini in White Plains and Manhattan Mini. I've had a very good experience with Prestige.

Hi, Alex,
Is your MINI a MINI S Cooper or a Cooper without Turbine engine? Tks.
 
I am considering a MINI, but I am not sure how much difference it will be b/w MINI S or MINI. Do you have any comments?

MINI buying experience in Memphis, TN area by wilhelmw

I am considering a MINI.
Is there any one who recently bought MINI in this area? Unfortunately, there is only one MINI deal in Memphis. I will consider dealers in TX or LA, if the price is better. Appreciate if any one could share experience from TN, TX, or LA?

a Q about 6 speed auto transmission by wilhelmw
Sep 14, 2009 (11:00 am)

I went to Truecar to configure my own MINI and found that "6-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION" is on the option list.
What that mean?
Does it mean that unless I select this option, the car will only have manual transmission?
 
Tks.

Yes, that is exactly the case. Manual transmission is standard and automatic is optional.
