Curious, now that the economy is tanking if the Mini dealers are lowering their prices. I"m in So Cal area.....

 

Some are , some not ... you'll have to check the dealers in your area ...
Mine was straight MSRP and now they are $1k under , and throwing in freebies

 

I was shopping for the last couple months. There was one dealer about 300 miles away that was advertising all stock units (about 40 new in inventory) at $1500 off MSRP. I ended up with a 2008 Clubman S, w/ 6700 miles, loaded with about everything including Nav. & leather for about $8500 less than the MSRP.

 

I just recently purchased a 2009 JCW at about $2000 below MSRP......
