****SOLD****

THANKS NAM!

 

Thanks for the opportunity, bro. It was great dealing with you. Looking forward to driving it soonest!!! Will post pics as soon as it arrives Manila.

Thanks also to the guys who made this possible.

 

Senator, you beat me to what would have been my second one in the garage by 3 days... Enjoy your new ride, you got a REALLY nice car damnit...

 

Woohoo, congrats!

 

Thanks, guys. Can't wait for it to arrive Manila, Philippines, wherein GP 1007 will only be the third GP in the country.

 

Curious, how much to ship it there in US dollars?

 

Some may find this funny, or outrageous, or outrageuosly funny, but to ship the GP would cost $22K to $25K (landed cost already, including taxes). Add the unit cost of $26K, and you find GP1007 imported to Manila for a whopping $48K to $51K.

GP 0342 was sold here for $70K brand new, which is what motivated me to pursue GP 1007.

Oh well, as what the oldies say, as long as you don't intentionally hurt anyone, do whatever makes you happy. Especially if you can afford it.

By the way, 1 US dollar = 40 Philippine pesos. It was once $1 = P56. Somewhat pricey really to import a MINI as there are no dealerships here. At least, none yet as of the moment.

 

i can attest to this, senator_1966 is a fellow member from our local Mini Group. curse you senator, you got another kick-**** ride (stop denying that you bought this!

at least the bright side of it is...me and the guys get to test drive it on the track

 

shipping ANY cars to ANY places will be costly. Mainly because of ridiculous taxes. BTW, Congrats !

 

^^Exactly. My parents live in Brazil and had a vehicle shipped there from the US. 75% taxes on MSRP. However you still come out better than buying an imported car directly from the dealer there, where you have about an 125% markup. Many times even more!

 

Thanks again, guys. Cost nothwithstanding, i am getting quite excited to drive it here.

Mini_Macky, i know you are also as excited. You've been itching to outperform a JCW or a GP in the track time trials. You are gonna get that chance. Soon. Woohoo...

 

y'know me, i don't back out on any challenge, as long as the challenger doesn't have more than 240whp
