Ordering a Mini JCW, need to find a dealer

Anyone know any friendly MINI dealers where if you order a MINI they are receptive to giving you a discount? Where I live there is only one MINI dealer and they usually don't discount. I have no issues travelling to pick up a MINI.

There are a few MA's who post on here. One is CarFreak427 the other is Graysojj, there might be more. Those are the two I recall reading recently.

I found when searching that Los Angeles area dealers and SF Bay area ones have lots of competition as well. Here in Portland we have one dealer who doesn't like to deal so much.

I feel your pain. I have 1 (ONE) Mini dealer in town. Next closest is a five hour drive. Local dealer doesn't discount. After some deliberation, decided the 10 hour round trip to maybe save a thousand or two wasn't worth the effort. My dealer threw in some goods when my car arrived, and as a member of the local Mini Club, I get a 20% discount on everything but tires. And I feel more comfortable buying cars from the dealers who will be servicing them.
