Replying to: nycgrrrl (Dec 04, 2005 9:22 am) If you've got something in writing (e.g. email) with the itemized cost that shows the exact amount you are going to pay, I wouldn't be too worried. It probably isn't legally binding, but a dealer would have to be very unscrupulous not to honor a deal they documented in email.   The best thing is a signed sales contract, but your situation may make it a little tricky to do this.   I'd go with what you have and hope for the best. I think the flexibility cuts both ways and being able to back out of the deal at the last second when you see your situation in LA might be a bonus. If the worst happens, you go down and buy a new Civic Si, or Jetta, or Mazda 3, or whatever for a lot less money. Is this really the end of the world?   - Mark Replies to this message: nycgrrrl (Dec 05, 2005 7:37 am)

For a tiny bit more, just buy an RX-8. The 2006 models are coming out any day now, so 2005s will be easy to get for just above 20K.

Replying to: markjenn (Dec 04, 2005 11:03 am) Thanks Mark. Of course it's not the end of the world...but I do have my heart set on getting a MINI.   I'll let you all know how it goes down in January!   -nycgrrrl

Replying to: sitcur (Apr 20, 2005 12:27 pm) I just placed an order for a Cooper S through South Bay Mini. They are projecting May 2006 delivery. Roger, did yours arrive within the September time-frame they quoted you?    Any notable positives or negatives about your experience with them?    Thanks for any input.

#340 of 1308 South Bay Mini and Factory Alarm Cost by nearysmini Dec 23, 2005 (1:25 am)
Hi everyone, I just placed an order for a Cooper S through South Bay Mini. They are projecting May 2006 delivery. Has anyone else had experience with this dealership, in particular the accuracy/reliability of their projected delivery date?    Any other notable positives or negatives about your experience with this dealership?   Also wondering if $599 for a factory/OEM alarm system sounds reasonable. The alarm itself lists for $299, which means they want $300 for labor to install. Seems like a lot for what should be a pretty quick and easy job.    Thanks for any input. Happy Holidays to everyone.
#341 of 1308 Best way to sell a Mini? by trulytruly Dec 30, 2005 (12:36 pm)
What a great site; sorry it's taken me so long to discover it.   I'm thrilled with my Mini; as much as I try, I just can't stop my children from growing.   I'd like to sell my Mini (2003) and am astounded to see that if I do it myself, I can pretty much get what I paid for it. Does anyone have suggestions on how best sell Minis in these modern days?   Fwiw, if anyone wants positives/negatives about my Mini experience: + love the car - hate how far the dealer is + can park ANYwhere - window motor needed to be replaced early on - trunk latch is persnickety + 26 mpg city/hwy Replies to this message: robn (Jan 24, 2006 2:11 pm)
#342 of 1308 question... by minicooper33 Jan 01, 2006 (2:24 am)

Replying to: minicooper33 (Jan 01, 2006 2:24 am) apparently there has been a modest price increase. The base MC is up $500. It seemed to change overnight without warning.In fact the dealer order software still has the old base price in it so my salesman had to hand-write the price increase on my copy of the order form.
