I am thinking of selling my 06 MSC and wanted to see what is available in the SF Bay Area so I went to Autotrader and did a search of 500 miles. There are only 80 for sale?? Cars.com had less........thats not a lot of 06's. The last 2 MCS's I sold were close to what I paid after 1 year. I know that Mini market is a weird one but not sure what to make of it. Oh by the way here is my replacement courtesy of c4r_dr1v3r over at 1addicts.com.

 

I can tell you this, when I got my vert...there were only 20 some to choose from in the states. The market is pretty small for these. As for the 1, I'd need to see one up close, I'm pretty partial to the 3 series myself. But rumor has it they were looking to put the twin turbo in it the following year...that'd be one quick getup for sure.

 

Actually the 135 arriving on March 22 08 will be the 300hp/300lbs beast.

 

well,
I bought my '06 as a CPO w/ the MiniNEXT program 6 mo ago... so I have the 6yr/100K mi extend. warr.

The car:
'06 MCS
Dark Silver w/ black top (and imported EU Silver Union Jack flag on the roof)
Space-Gray fabric seats, cruise, multi-fxn wheel, 17" not-so-S-Lites, Limited Slip...
8200 mi.
$20,000 here in lovely NJ (from Morristown Mini)...

They had 3 MCSs used on the lot... They've only had 1 MCS on the lot for the last 2-3 mo... (I walk by there frequently)

HTH.

 

I've been spying that 135 as well but I'm not looking tp trade anytime soon. The 135 looks like a winner and I'll bet the 128-or130? will still be very quick. Hate to see you go, why so soon after getting your MCS?

 

We actually I've been driving an MCS since May of 03. My first was a 2003 sold it and got a 2005 MCS sold that and got an 06. I've always thought that if BMW brought back something similar to the 2002 I would get it. Yes, some will say the 1 series is not anything like the 2002.....but its close enough.

Oh by the way MDK you just joined and you have more posts than me?!?!?! My god man........Go Motoring!

 

I got to do something to pass the day at work!
