2013 jcw black or red
Looking for a 2013 black or red jcw, manual transmission is preferred but also open to see if there is any option in auto.

It might actually help if you state the price range in which you're willing to buy a car. This shouldn't be counterproductive as most prospective sellers with "average" cars are willing to sell at current market values or, can justify their price if they're asking more than what you're seeing in the used car price guides, like KBB. Don't make the mistake of thinking KBB values are the holy word, cause they are not. Lots of MINI enthusiast, owners keep the appearance and maintenance of their cars up much better than the "average" owner. Also, MINI/JCW/GP options installed after the initial sale are rarely recognized in the price guides. Enthusiast ownership and these OEM options do add value to the car.
I love the guy that will pass up on buying a MINI owned by an enthusiast, which is in near perfect condition, with meticulous records, all maintenance done ahead of schedule, in need of nothing, to turn around and buy a used MINI from dealer, with no maintenance records, in need of tires, brakes, fluid changes, engine service and a bunch of other things, just to "save" $1000. Then he gets hit with a $700 DOC FEE. Just doesn't make much sense to me.

But I willing to discuss the details with your asking price if the specs meets with my criteria’s.

I’m in the same boat. I’m looking for a GP1 or a R56/R58 JCW with manual and Recaros. I have cash on hand as well and can’t find anything. I know of 3 GP1’s for sale right now but they are all overpriced in my opinion.
