2010 MSRP went up $400!

just talked to MA... MSRP for 2010 models went up $400. but MFSW is now standard. Mellow yellow discontinued. Interchange yellow is NOT offered for Cooper Hardtops, it is still only a convertible color.

Miniusa will update the configurator on September 15.

Thanks for the info! I've been waiting on pricing for a while. I guess mine only went up $150, because I had added the MFSW option for $250 to my order Not bad. I'm glad its not $750 like from the 08s to the 09s

Also I remember someone in another thread had posted that the price for the sport package is going to cost $250 less, but with all the same options. Can anyone confirm this? If its true my 2010 would cost less than a 2009!

So shouldn't the premium package be cheaper-fied since it won't feature that +$250 MFSW option?

I heard (not sure if this is true) that the Premium package was still going to be the same price, even though the MFSW is now standard. And that there'd be a second upgraded premium package that includes the HK stereo option. I don't know how true any of this is, and my MA is out on Tues and Wed, so I'll check in with her tomorrow and see if I can get final pricing on my 2010 now.

I just got an email from a local MINI SA and she said the 2010 sports package will not have the limited slip differential because "due to the lack of interest and take rate" - per MINI bulletin.

I emailed a couple of dealerships looking to order a 2009, but both came back to say 2009 are unattainable. One SA said they would email me more bulletins about the changes of packages and prices for 2010, which I will post.

The sport package doesn't have LSD, it has DTC

So do you mean the sport package will not have DTC, or are they just getting rid of the LSD option?

No way there will be no price change. Sounds like your dealer is misinformed.
