>>I got my financing throught MINI Financial at the Long Beach dealer. It was super easy and the payments fit my budget. The rate is 5.95%, which I was told is their lowest rate offering. I didn't want to go through the hassle of applying for other loans when this was so simple. Additionally, I can manage my account online through the MINI Owner's Lounge, get e-mail statements (instead of paper mailed ones) plus they have EasyPay which automatically deducts my payment from by checking account each month on the due date. So, as long as I make sure the money is in the account, I never even have to worry about sending payments or the possibility of late fees. I guess I could achieve the same results with online banking, but since they already have the programs in place, why not take advantage of it. I think it is great! :smile:


You can do all that and more with peoplefirst.com 24/7 from the comfort of your home or office. Plus they have the absolute lowest rates in the market that not even MINI Finance can't dare to touch.

In the case of leasing you are much better off going with MINI Financial services as they have a vested interest in giving its customers the best money factors (Rates) possible and move the metal out of dealerships lots.

Peoplefirst.com does not offer leasing programs.

um. no. Actually, MINI Financial's money factors were the worst of the quotes that I got by a large margin.

For leasing, the best deal that I could get was from racerpete@aol.com. His website: primelease.com. He was REALLY easy to deal with. My dealership, on the other hand.. wasn't. They really didn't want to deal with someone that wasn't in-house, but Pete managed to back them down for me quite nicely. They could NOT match the rates that I was offered for the lease. Maybe it's changed, but I don't really think so.

I'd give you the money factors that I was offered, but that was back in April and probably not the same right now.

'luck with the lease and if you've got any questions, please PM me!
