I like the fact we are in the minority! One year later, and people STILL pull up alongside and STARE! It's abso - frickin - awesome!

 

looks like octobers are coupe buying months!

 

Where I live nobody knows what the hell it is!

 

Good ! When I get mine, I'll get tons of questions !

I think I've seen your MINI around town a time or two.

 

After a year of ownership, i finally saw another one somewhere in north texas. I cant remember exactly, i do a lot of driving in my company car.

Since Forbes labeled the Coupe as one of the ugliest for 2013, sales may drop.

 

A $750.00 rebate is a good incentive.

 

Good. I can remain unique in this world of Honda Civics, Toyota Camrys and BMW 3 series (that everyone leases, and don't own) and stay out of the herd that all too often wants to follow some idiot over a cliff.

But I digress...

 

Forbes is on crack.....I've received nothing but compliments since I drove the car off the lot.

 

Me too... Lots of thumbs up!... Anyone who decides what car to buy based on a magazine impression based on subjective looks ain't buying a Mini anyway.

 

So glad I only paid JCW Coupe money instead of McLaren money to have an ugly car. Imagine how embarrassed McLaren owners must be.

Gosh that's funny. I'm with you James. I'm pretty happy. Ugly and I paid no where near that kind of dough. Heck how man JCW's can we buy for the McLaren money????

I'm a pretty happy camper and the folks I talk with like the car as well. I just don't know what all the fuss is about. LOL

 

Even in northern Chicagoland where minis are common I don't think I've seen a single coupe. I saw a roadster the other day but it was a service loaner. Talk about rare cars, I've seen more Fisker Karma and Nissan Leaf!

 

im in chicago, put about 13k a year driving around chicago/ burbs and have yet to run in to another coupe...but i kinda like that!

 

I worked in Chicago all summer, had my coupe with me, drove out from Jersey and never once saw another coupe except mine.

I do a lot of driving and never see another coupe

97! Only a double-digit sales month for the Coupe. Your MINI Coupe isn't going to be any less rare anytime soon with those figures.

 

If I put a deposit down in December and a car is delivered in March, which month is considered the sales month?

 

I wonder if they will stop production in the near future?

I'm almost certain Scion has surpassed those numbers in sales for the FR-S...or will very soon.

I'm certain MINI did not predict such poor numbers.

 

the winter months are always lower sales....spring is right around the corner!

 

Pretty sure it's when retail delivery happens. So in your case, March.

 

Yep. Deposits are farts in the wind. Sale counts when you sign on the dotted line, and not a moment sooner. (Unless someone backdates your paperwork while you're not looking.)
