We checked out some other cars, nothing in the price range compared to the
Mini. We dont need another big car, figured it would be nice to get something
that you dont see ALL the time. They offered the best bargain, and the car
seems to be of a high build quality, the dealer network is great, service department
is BMW. The dealer only gets 300 a year so they can only sell so many of them.
He told us they plan on making a 2 seater pick-up, and the convertible is coming
out in 2005-2006? So the design is going to stay basically the same. Resale is great
on them as well. They also offer free maintance for 3 years/36,000 miles, synthetic oil
is reccomended so they will be providing that, brake pads, wiperblades, light bulbs, you
name it.
I dont think the whole watching your mini get built is real, I cant see it taking
them more then a day to build one. I couldnt get over how many people were
coming into the dealer to see them, they had them in thier own section
of a showroom across the street from the BMW dealer where they sell
the certified used BMWs. The whole expierence in the dealer was worth it,
where the Honda dealer was pushing to sign a deal so that the
"rates wouldnt change", the Mini dealer was super low pressure.

a pick-up, a convertible, and even a sport wagon!
The dealer had seen all of the
prototypes. Apparently they send the dealers to school where they get to drive
the **** out of a mini as well as all its competitors. That pick-up is
really nice.
