soon to be a mini owner
 

hello,

i'm going to buy a new 2011 mini cooper s. i want horizon blue with black top and manual. i've check with several dealerships around my area, but they do not have what i want in their inventory. if i have to order my mini, will they charge more? i understand i need to put a $1000 deposit and it takes 8 weeks. i have spoken over the phone with a salesmen and he said no. but i just wanted to double check with everyone on this board. if there's any hidden fees.

thank you so much!

Most dealers are straight MSRP on ordered cars / little or no discount. They do qualify for Mini financing if there is a special rate ... I got 0% when I got mine

You might want to take a look at consumer complaints about Mini before making that purchase. The dealers not having what you want right now could be a blessing in disguise.
