Wow I could not get anything to work on the website. I tried for a little over 3 minutes. All I could get was the navigation, and the error msg.
I am also glad that I will be getting my '06 in a few more day.
I can not wait. Still wanted to see what an '07 would be price wise.
Happy Motoring.

It did seems like they sure did chop a lot of items out of the packages yet they didn't lower the package price (actually they raised the prices). I mean on the S the sport package dooesn't get you the sport suspension & the exterior chrome package no longer chromes the tailpipes
My 2005 Cabrio was $1000 less than an equally equipped '07 hard top The new Mini is definitely a whole lot more expensive in fact a new hardtop is now the same price as a new cabrio (in fact I am sooo tempted to try to squeak out a new cabrio in 07/08 before they change them & jack the prices up. I mean hell when they change the Cabrios over they will probably run $40K)

I just "played" with configurator right now (7:30pm PST), it's working fine. I didn't find all the options I wanted, but what I could find, I was able to stay under 29,000. Interesting, I would be well over 31k if I configured the '07 to the same specs as my '06, that would be 3k more than what I paid for my '06.
I think if I waited to get an '07, I would have paid way more for what I got on my '06.
It's still a great looking MINI for an '07.

It's interesting, I tried to configure a new MCS with the same config as what I have now, and it came out almost $3K MORE than what I paid... some of that is the way the packages are now set up, but most of it is the cost difference!
I admit, I love the new engine, and I think it will be faster than the current car by quite a bit... but I'm not wicked motivated to switch out. Maybe when the JCW packages come out..? but at that point I'd be looking at a MINI that is almost $40K! For that kind of money I could get a used M3!
In any event, the website itself isn't as 'overhauled' as I was lead to believe... call it a 'more mature' upgrade if you will.
I think my $ will go into upgrades for the forseeable future!
