Question. If I order my mini through a dealership tomorrow Jan 31, will they have to honor the Mini deals this month--- free automatic and 2.9 financing? Or does the car have to be physically on the lot?

 

Who knows. They will make their money on you either way. You will get the 2.9% financing as long as you have perfect credit. They will give you a free automatic upgrade, but will low ball your trade in.

It may just be me, but I can not stand dealing with car salesman.

 

It really has depended on the dealership and the type of incentive it is. I would call and ask.

 

Why? it's only a problem of you let it be....if you think your trade is worth so much more, sell it yourself, then you don't have to worry abou them low balling you. The market is what it is, they don't control it, they only work within it like all dealers.

As to honoring the terms of the 2.9 and free automatic deal, the only one who can answer that is the dealer - shouldn't you be asking them???

 

The current financing and leasing programs do not lock in.
You will need to take delivery of vehicle to take advantage of the current programs. The dealer does not know in advance what the next month programs will be.

There have been programs in the past that allowed for a lock in rate.

 

Thanks,
I will ask them tomorrow. They were closed today and I was just curious if anybody knew.

 

I ordered my MINI several days ago, and they would not lock me into the free package offer that MINI is giving away for this month. The reason they give for not locking me in is that they don't know if the free package will be available when I receive my car in March. I fully understand they have to protect their profit. I am not worried about it though. I have been following the MINI monthly incentive for the past year. Things will only get better as the months go by. Currently MINI is offering either free automatic transmission or some lesser stuff. In a month or two, MINI will extend the offer to either automatic transmission, or sport package, or convenience package. You can expect the interest rate to go as low as 1.9% in the coming months.

 

Thanks, I bought my first mini yesterday. PW Justa Cooper/moonroof, Cold Weather/Auto..... I am looking forward to "tricking it out" Is that the term? I have to still learn the mini lingo.

 

Congrats! Enjoy and let the modding begin!
