I'm ordering a NEW MCS. I'd buy a low mileage used one, but I can't find one.

1. Which bra...Nose or Invisishield

2. How important is Dynamic Stability feature?

3. What about the HK stereo? Should I order it with car or choose another later?


Any thoughts or suggestions would be most helpful since this is my first mini.
Thank you in advance!!

There's a CR/W S at the seattle dealership right now. i saw it yesterday. It has ~7k miles on it and is fairly loaded. They want 27 for it but you should be able to talk them down.

there are a good handful of MCSs at all Chicago dealerships right now (I assume you're in Chicago).

I'm looking for Pepper White/black roof and Premium and Cold Package. I rang three dealerships in Illinois and not one had the car I was looking for.
I tried ebay and both sellers were scammers and Auto By Trade did not have the car I was looking for. I would even take the Indigo Metallic Blue.

Since I live in the snow belt, I want the cold package and many "nice" used cars are from the part of the country where it is not a feature on their car.

Knauz, Patrick, Bill Jacobs.

I know that Knauz had two Indie Blue/White top MCSs there last weekend. I can't imagine they didn't have the cold weather package on either of them as i've never seen a pre-specced one there without.

I also heard the others had some of their lots but no idea of colors or spec.
