FS: 2006 Mini Cooper S - 5,400 Miles

Lowered price! Please see this post.

Updated with new pictures!

Absolutely immaculate 2006 Mini Cooper S for sale in the DC/Baltimore area. I bought this lovely Chili Red Mini less than 6 months ago. Unfortunately due to having accepted a job in New York City I have to sell it.

It has Limited Slip Differential (LSD), heated front seats, premium sound system, alarm system, black/grey space cloth seats, Front and rear fogs, 6-spd manual transmission, Silver roof (w/ moon roof) and mirrors, 16" all season run flats, silver bonnet stripes. I should add that I don't smoke and noone has ever smoked in the car. I have all the maintenance records (although there aren't many since it's so new). I think that's the important bits.

I am asking for $21,500.

I love this car and I'm sad to see it go. Hopefully there's someone out there willing to give "E.T" a new home

If you are interested or have any questions, please post here or shoot me a PM.

UPDATE: New pictures HERE.

Yeah it was perfect for me too. I didn't want any fluff, just those items added on. I've sent you a PM to follow up as well.

Thank you for your interest. The purchase price was $26,604. Seeing as how the car is less than 6 months old and based on other listings in the forum and elsewhere I felt that $23,500 was a fair price.

Please don't worry about offending me

Since there wasn't much interest I've put up the car on eBay with a reserve price of $21,500 because I really need to sell the car. If you PM me with your interest and back it up with some kind of deposit I'll happily remove my auction and sell it to you at that price. I would much rather sell it here so don't miss out on this opportunity.

Holy guacamole Batman!! Great price on this. My buddy is looking for one w/ LSD. But.......man that's a ways away from us. I'll pass the word along to him though. Maybe he wants a good sized road trip.

Hmm, anyone know how much it would cost to paint a Mini Jet Black? I just started casually looking but I'm dead set on Jet Black. This car has the main options I want (LSD, sound, etc) without all the other fluff so it's almost perfect except the color.

Haha, yeah I know. I can't believe they did that. That's why I'm looking at used, not new...Seriously though, anyone know roughly how much a shop would charge for good paint job? Not cheap Maaco stuff. I'm seriously considering this.

If you are meticulous, 2-3K will not make you happy. Figure a good 10K to get a factory perfect job considering you would have to strip the interior and take out the engine and everything else to make it 'perfect'!!!
