Dealer Invoice

Hi all,

I'm looking to pick up a GP, but was wondering if anyone here knew what dealer invoice was.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as it would give me all the background in any haggling.

Thanks much.

Mark

Honestly I'd be surprised if they negotiated on it. Even for the Hardtop JCW, the average price is only $300-$400 below MSRP.

I don't know about the GP, but the DI on a 2013 JCW HT is ~ $3k below MSRP.

To negotiate a deal on a GP2 based upon dealer cost.

Good luck with that.

I disagree with most posts here.

I received a significant discount on mine.

PM me - Would love to help you work a deal, and even get you the same deal I got if you're in the area.

There are many dealers dropping asking price to 38 (or a bit below)... you can easily get this price, but I'd try for 37 if I were buying now.

With all due respect, what's the big deal about pictures of a GP? Don't they all look the same?

It's a bit of a joke... Like if you don't have pics, you're just a wannabe with an Internet connection and no MINI Cooper, but as I said just a joke. OP seems to know its in good fun.

Truthfully though -I love to see pictures of MINI Coopers, They're just so cool. Eye candy I suppose. Am I allowed to go so far as to say that naked engine parts are like old-man's ****. LOL

While I was deciding on my GP buy the harassment for pics lasted for nearly a week. Not sure why some feel the need to call random people liars, but they do. Seems to me they should wait for mom to go to bed, sneak the laptop into their room, and look at some pics-

It's kind of like sending out a birth announcement, you always include a pic so everyone can share in your excitement

There's two GPs at Morristown. One sitting in the showroom, the other outside.

It is plausible for a serious buyer to get a good discount right now- even better once 2014s start really lining the lot.

The invoice as told to me by a Mini dealership Gen Mgr is 36,892 and some odd cents. Hope this helps. Cheers
