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.

South Bay Mini and Factory Alarm Cost by nearysmini

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.

Best way to sell a Mini? by trulytruly

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

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.

I am thinking of using them (South Bay) as a delaer too, they claim MSRP. Is it true? Thanks.

I don't know about that particular dealer, but I think everyone basically just ends up paying MSRP on MINI's these days. You're not likely to find anything less than that unless it's a demo car or has been sitting on the lot for a long time for some reason. I placed my order here in NoVA the other day for a base MINI Cooper and my projected delivery according to the salesman is late March with build to happen in week 9 which is end of Feb/beginning of March. I think becuase the MCS is more popular the wait is a little longer and it also depends on dealer allocation and how many orders are ahead of yours at a particular dealer. And of course it also depends on your location since East Coast delivery is a couple of weeks less than West Coast.
 
I am discovering that there are lots of good MINI forums out there on the 'Net. try MINI2.com or North American Motoring. There are also lots of MINI enthusiast groups out there, so the folks in those groups and forums might have good info on particular dealers and locales.
