I'm scheduled to take a test drive on Wed (7/17). Are there any Puget Sound Mini owners in the area that can share their impressions of the NorthWest MINI dealership? I've searched through the forums and can't find any info on this dealership. Are they charging over MSRP? Is there a recommended sales person?


Thanks!

update on the dealer in Seattle, Northwest MINI.

Northwest MINI has been open one month, MCS waits are 16 months. The Seattle dealer is serving all of the Pacific Northwest (WA, OR, ID, MT, WY and Alaska?). The Portland, OR dealership isn't open yet. So that is ~300 cars/yr for 5 immediate states.

Seems that MINI didn't feel that there was a market for MINI's in the SUV loving Pacific Northwest. They may need rethinking that one.

16 months is a long time... I think I'll call a few of the east coast dealerships. Any suggestions for which dealer is close to MSRP and a short wait? (I know, everyone is asking that question).
