New member :-) So did I steal this car or what??

So one and all, I have officially joined the mini cooper ranks. I was in the market for a porsche but ran across a beaut of a coop and decided it was a better purchase for the time being. Onto the details...

It is a 2005 Cool blue Mini S Convertable 6spd automatic, Blue top (sorry no pictures yet) w/ all option except nav, and the paint is in cherry shape. Car has 35K on the clock, waranty till 8/09 or 55K, and I picked it up for a whopping $16,500.

Needless to say I feel I stole the car, never wrecked, clean car fax, 1 owner, and serviced as needed. Only some small niggles, such as : center armrest won't stay closed, rear speakers are shot, squeaky rear brakes. Ends up most if not all of those issues will be fixed under warranty next tuesday.

So did I kill on this deal or what? Will post pics later tonight.

Sounds like you got a great deal. What part of the country do you live in...it makes a small difference.

Not doubting you, but most of the time "all options" mean different things to different people. Can you list the options it has?

How did you get the extra 5000 miles of warranty?
