Ok, so, I placed my order in November at NW MINI, knowing full well that I would not take delivery on my MINI until the latter part of 2006. Well, in the mean time, my dad, god bless him, offered me money to help with the down-payment. Once that man said that, the MINI part of my brain has been roiling non stop.

So now, I may be financially able to buy the car much, much sooner. (won't need to wait to pay of the SUV first!) I know from postings on here that Classic (esp. Julie at Classic) MINI was the way to go from ordering out of state. Anyone have any other suggestions about an out of state dealer that they had really good experiences with? I havent decided wether or not to have it shipped or to fly out and drive it back. (not a good flyer, so I may just have it shipped)

Any and all feedback is appreciated!

 

I don't fly any more than absolutely necessary. The hassle just ain't worth it to me. Go Greyhound and save money, see America, and stay on the ground.

Sounds like an idea!!

 

I believe Julie has recently moved on to other things, but Classic folks are still very good, and there are several other dealers who seem to take good care of out-of-state-customers.

 

I'm in Seattle too and just placed my order for a SR/S MC through Mini of Murray in Salt Lake City,UT. Paid MSRP and am in March production. Driving her home sounds like a great way to break her in to me!

 

That road trip would be a great way to speed up breaking her in... I say that's a good idea

 

Yup. Julie is no longer there. She was my original MA but left before I took deliery. Mike Kost stepped in and worked with me until I took the car home. I highly recommend him!

 

*Bump*

Any other advice?
