I just talk to the canadian dealership. There is only one option on the minis now until Feb 2007. The new production line will start in Feb 2007. So I guess the new model won't be here until April. They usually need 2 month to build and ship. The model that is on sale now. I think is a good deal but I won't buy when I know the new one is coming in less then a year. What do you guys think?

 

i suppose we are lucky in new york. I had my car ordered and picked up within 5 1/5 weeks.

 

My thinking is that although you might get a slightly more powerful engine (a BMW engine as well) and very little body improvement it may be better to go with a 2006 model. I think that the 2007 may go up in price because of the new engine. I am waiting for the Soho (delivery mid August) and I'm happy with what I ordered. It has everything I need including no-charge maintenance for 3 years and all season run-flats. I bet that is only available in Canada (eh!!)

 

I guess you are getting a better deal then what I got in 2005. I pay like 28800 for my car and you pay 29600 (assume automatic) for a lot more options. So you are getting a better deal. I do agree the price might go up in 2007, but the 2007 interier is very very nice compare to 2006. If you drive automatic, the gear box is a lot better compare to to 2006. I guess it depend on person to person.

 

You like that interior, musume? I think the overhead switches are cool, but that speedo with an in-built radio and the business for the heater are cheap looking and far to 'Buck Rogers'. You are right, it comes down to personal taste.
