Very nice! Please share why you would sell a pristine 2003 MCS for the EXACT same model?

I'm guessing that he's a "trade-'em-in-every-two-years" kinda guy?! OR...that he wants that LSD and the new Getrag gearing!

Given his username, I'll name that tune in three notes: L S D

It's actually tempting, but since I can get an '05 w/LSD and goodies for about $3,500 more... $0.10/mile seems like cheap depreciation. I miss IB.

Hello, I ran some KBB.com numbers on your car using my zipcode (33185) and here is what I got:


Private sale (Excellent condition): $22,165
(Good condition): $20,820

Trade-In: (Excellent Condition): $19,725
(Good Condition): $18,515

Your asking price is somewhere in between KBB "Excellent condition" and "Good Condition" Private sale.

Good luck.

I also find it interesting (Going back to KBB.com) that a '03 Cooper S with less options than yours (No packages) and 16,500 miles less bring in higher numbers than your fully loaded MCS...why is that?


Is mileage the "everything" in the equation?

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! Clo's 2nd guess is right on the money!

And yes, I came up with the price based on KBB, edmunds, etc, and also local classifieds. If worse comes to worse, i'll have to trade in. Another reason for selling is the fact that if i get 21k for the car, i would be able to replace it for an extra $40 a month (I use MINI Select) and get the same car, plus LSD, a few extras, minus the leather. And also push the balloon ahead another 2 years.
