Smile Suggestions before I order?

I'm hoping to order my Mini Cooper S Countryman All4 this coming weekend. Does anyone have any things that they LOVE or would change about theirs? Also, the dealer said that the online price is what I'll pay, any ideas about negotiating the dealer down?

Thanks!
Tana

I went fully loaded but I love the back tinted windows. I have a toddler in the back most of the time so it's very valuable to me. My favorite feature is the memory seats. My wife and I use this F60 much more than our R56 so it's another feature dependent on situation. Pretty worthless to someone with a single driver. Her key fob automatically adjusts the seats to her setting and mine fob sets to my setting. No musical chairs adjusting the seat everytime. Only adjustment needed manually is rear view mirror.

Regarding price, is their online price MSRP or a discounted price? I ordered mine prior to launch and paid well under MSRP. I'm in an area with multiple dealers around though. If there is no other dealer nearby for competition, they may hold more firm to pricing. If there are other dealers, check their price.

I was leaning toward fully loaded as I fell in love with active driving assistant in my previous car and I can only get on a fully loaded model. And with a son getting a drivers permit in a year...the memory seats will become handy.

There are no other dealers unless I drive 4 hours into Seattle. I'm pretty sure there are 2 dealers in the Seattle So, while I may be able to save some, I should consider the cost of the pick up trip as well.

Thanks for your help.

You can still negotiate but it depends on the model you want to order.


I will suggest 8" screen and HUD
