Does dealership give a good deal now that econ is bad?

Other car dealership are giving deep discount to move their fleet,
I know mini still in high demand, but it must affect them somewhat, so are they giving deals?
or is it still msrp?

i may be in the market for a miniS in a few months...

The only thing I see MINI doing is 4.9% financing.

Mini is always MSRP.
Doesn't matter where you go, they don't negotiate like other car companies.

Certainly makes it easier though!

I just got my MCS for $2000 off MSRP. It was on their lot since Jan so
they were willing to deal on it. I had to finance with BMW but at 1.9% it
was a no brainer. The only reason I can think it was still on the lot was it
was the only one I could find that didn't have auto air- or people don't like
dark silver. They were also willing to deal on the blue & yellow colors as
they said those colors were going away or going to change.

I got my ordered Mini Clubman MCS in San Francisco area for $1250 below MSRP plus to rubber floor mats thrown in. I think $1000-$1500 off on an ordered Mini should be easy to get now. Also they just started 0.9% financing up to 48 months. 1.9% longer than 48 months.

I was in Boston dealer, (there is only one) they offer my friend $1000 off
for a MCS that is on the lot. He brought it last week..
Now I am trying to order one, and just looking for $500 off MSRP + set of rubber mat.
Waiting for their answer....
