Hello from NC!

Hello from a possible future MINI owner!

My wife and I decided to get new cars this year, and I have decided to sell my 325i for a MINI. I got a new job in December that is farther away and I am looking for something with better mileage but still fun. I narrowed it down a few, but the MINI keeps coming back. I will be buying used, but I am still deciding on Justacooper or an S. There seems to be about a 4-5k difference between them in the used market.

Tips and hints for my search are welcome!

No real tips or hints on your search, but welcome!! Enjoy the hunt - hope you find the reward at the end worth it.

In the meantime, be sure to check out the Tar Heel MINI Motoring Club as well. Some of our local folks may be able to provide you with some help. Pretty sure we have a club member with a MINI for sale as well at the present time.

Welcome to NAM, it is always nice to meet a fellow tar heel. You should take a look at the Tar Heel MINI Motoring Club as mentioned by jcauseyfd. Good luck.
