Which Mini Dealer?

I am looking to order my MCS with in the next month and am wondering which MINI dealership has the better rep! I am located in central jersey and have been looking into Princeton MINI, Morristown, and Prestige. Any comments on them? Any suggestions or other dealers to look into? Thanks!

Cross the Delaware (and the Schukyll too) and take a look at Mini of the Main Line.

Mini of the Hamptons is great, I ordered from them recently out here in California. They sell at MSRP, paperwork is only 65 dollars.

After I configured mine onlline I went browsing dealers websites that showed what they had in their inventory. Mini of the Hamptons had the exact car, in the exact configuration, in the exact color I wanted sitting on the lot. I called them up and it was on its way to my door a few minutes later. I wasn't about to wait the 10 months my dealer quoted me. It showed up a week later without a scratch on it and 12 miles on the odometer. Very easy process and they were OUTSTANDING to deal with. Recommend them...A+++

I've purchased two MINIs from Princeton (will pick mine up Friday, hopefully) - they charge MSRP. Easy ordering process although they can be very busy on Saturdays. My MA was Debbie and she is very knowledgeable about MINIs (owns several and her and her husband are very active in the NJ MINI club). Haven't had much experience with service but the SA (Issac) is very friendly and easy to deal with. They will provide a loaner when your car is in for service but it can sometimes take a little longer to get scheduled with a loaner.

I used Prestige (or they used me, lol)... great dealership, professional, courteous, sent me gifts and thank yous for buying my MCS and I haven't been to any other MINI dealer so any comparison by me is biased.
Princeton MINI would likely be closest for you of course. I'm only 11 miles from Prestige. :-) A coworker of mine went to Morristown and he lives in northeast PA. Good comments as well.
Look, you cannot go wrong, you're buying the elite MINI! :-)

I'm sure you guys do a great job, but I don't know about the name. Hassel MINI? Maybe yall should rename it Pleasantexperience MINI or at least No-Hassle MINI.

I live in VA and am ordering through Classic MINI in Cleveland. . .20% off all accessories, freebies like glovebox organizer, floormats, other niceities, and they'll pick you up @ the airport.

It might be a nice way to buy since it will allow you to motor home!!!

I purchased my MINI Cooper from MINI of Morristown, great sales reps, and service. I paid MSRP and got free stripes and floor mats. Also MINI of Morristown runs 30% sales on their accessories several times a year.
