Well, you are in a well-populated part of the world as far as MINI availability. You should have your pick of many. Check out the car search feature on Edmunds.com and also Craigslist if you run out of other options.
Helix is in Philly, they may have lines on pre-modded MINIs too. Worth the drive ( I drove there from New Mexico to get my mods done!)
Best of luck and keep us posted; we're glad to answer questions.

I 2nd the Craigslist thing. I tried Autotrader, Edmunds, etc, but the best selection I found was through Craigslist. Not what I would have expected. Good luck in your quest. Mini Love sounds like it should be a song. Anyone with musical talent out there want to give it a shot?

So it's an 03/04. Not the best years, but budget often dictates what we can have. It is a beautiful MINI!
