Mini 2008 or 2009

[cooperman]

Hi forum members. I'm a newbie. I just ordered my mini yesterday. Originally I was told that the mini I was configuring was the 2009 and deliver was for October. After placing the order, my sales rep tells me there are still some slots available for the 2008 model and deliver if for mid September. Just thought I'd share that. Is this typical of your first mini purchase? By the way, I chose the midnight blue color with white bonnet stripes.

Huh, did u have to pay more for the 2009? Some sites (edmunds.com) are showing a huge price increase for the 2009. Seriously?!

The price difference between the 09 andthe 08 is $500.00 the difference being dynamic stability control. DSC was optional for 08. It is standard on the 09.
