Hey zoran. According to the latest information that I have seen, Mini's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 Mini Cooper S with 10,000 miles per year are .00180 and 54%, respectively.
 
I know that Mini has a lot of changes planned for the 2011 model year, including some engine improvements for the Coopers and the introduction of the new Countryman, but I'm not sure how much of a facelift the '11 Cooper will receive or when it will hit showrooms.

Hi hearnia. I assume that you're talking about Mini's advertised lease payment for the base Cooper Hardtop model. Its current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a base 2010 Cooper Hardtop with 10,000 miles per year are .00230 and 65%, respectively.

Thanks for your reply. When I inquired at my local dealer with this information they confirmed the 62% but on the money factor stated:
 
money factor is .00210 + .00035(to waive lease acquistion fee of $725)+ .00015(to waive security deposit)= .00260
 
Does this sound right?
 
Thanks....

The dealer is correct...
 
But, do the math... With the MINI being under $30K, you may well save money by taking the waiver, rather than adding the acquisition fee... but, you get the security deposit back at the end of the lease.... Letting them keep your $400 for three years, then giving it back, will save you $6-$7 per month on your lease payment.. That's a pretty good return!

I just went in to a SoCal dealer and this is the best deal they offered me on a 2010 base cooper hard top, automatic, with bluetooth :
 
36 month/10k
$1500 drive off
$300/month incl tax
 
It seems like a good deal to me, but I'm an amateur at this! All opinions greatly appreciated!

My local dealer said Mini's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39-month lease of a 2010 Cooper S with 10,000 miles per year are .00175 and 63%, respectively.
 
Does that sound right ?
 
Thanks!
