Website pricing = MSRP?

I'm assuming yes, but just wanted to check...

I know most people are paying MSRP (+/- $500).

If I work up a MINI on their website is that pretty close what I can expect to pay (adding Tax of course)?

thx!

Yes, web is MSRP. Just keep in mind that the dealer installed accessories have a unstated labor cost.

...which is exactly why I strongly recommend that people ignore Step 5 in the configurator, and just configure their MINI with Steps 1-4, which are the factory options.

That way you can maximize your dollar on the factory stuff... much of which you can't get added by the dealer.

The dealer will always be there for you later to install the Step 5 things you wanted!

Don't shoot yourself in the foot later, wishing you'd checked that particular factory option box for a feature you wanted... and have no dealer recourse!
