Hey everyone, I'm a new owner of a 2006 Cooper S with the Rallye package.
I paid $30,500 w/o taxes.. I ended up getting $3500 off the MSRP plus they threw in the Mini Checkpoint plan.. I thought we got a good deal, I'm just wondering what everyone else thinks. Oh and the prices are in Canadian.

 

I was gonna say, wow, that's expensive, but I see now it's canadian. Looks like a decent deal, not sure what the rally package is. I thought checkmate was discontinued in 05?

 

Checkpoint not Checkmate. Checkmate was 06...

 

The Rallye package is Canadian only I guess. My dealer told me that the rallye is pretty much the premium and sport packages with a few extra options (HK sound system, flame spoke wheels, rain sensor). The checkpoint is a 3 year/ 60,000 km servicing plan ($615 value).

 

Based on what others are posting elsewhere, it seems that $3500 off MSRP on a 2006 is a very good deal -- I'm not sure many dealers are offering discounts that large.
So, you can sleep well at night and enjoy your car -- welcome to MINI ownership.
(With the $3500 you saved off MSRP, you can now start feeding the after-market-mod-monster)

 

Welcome to NAM from South of the Border in Central Ga. Some pics would be nice and "Happy Motoring".

wow you got $3500 knocked off? how much is that in US? o.O
and i thought my $2k off was about the most i've seen.
but WELCOME to NAM!!

 

Thanks everyone, I'll post some pictures when I take delivery on Saturday. Too bad its supposed to snow the day i pick it up

 

I think the time to ask about a good deal would be before you bought! What is the difference now?
