Hi all, we just picked up our new Mini last night. Its the British Racing Green with the white roof and has just about every option you can put on the car. Its my Wife's car so we got it in an automatic.

We traded in her New Beetle, that car had given us more problems than any car we have ever previously owned.

We paid sticker price for the Mini and the dealer made us add $1,000 worth of options. She is getting the 6 disk changer, floor mats and some other small stuff added to the car later today. They gave me what http://www.kbb.com said the Beetle was worth for the trade.

I had heard of many dealers selling for thousands over MSRP, I hate paying sticker but I guess thats the price you pay for a car in high demand. If anyone is interested in buying one at sticker, Tom Bush Mini in Jax has about a dozen on the lot with five being the S model.

Anyone else here from Jax?

Me and Mini Me are in Jax too. I got my car at Tom Bush as well and they tried to get me to buy $1800 of dealer add ons, I ended it up with only CD changer and Floor mats. Congrats on the car! PS>You can see Mini Me on the Member's Pages, around page 26 I think. :smile:
