MCSC at Universal City Mini - $6k over MSRP

I couldn't belive it.... just passed by to check the convertibles out and they had 2 MCS Convertibles there... although 1 (PS Blk top) was already sold.... I came and took a look and was almost floored at what they were charging.... $6k over sticker..... made the car almost $34k... WOW... I guess that's why I bought mine (MCS hardtop) from Classic Mini :smile: Here's a pic of a future mini motorer (my son) trying his hand out with a Black MC Conv. in the "sunroof" mode

Maybe by the time he starts to drive there won't be a premium like that.
Crazy

Holy crap...that's a huge markup. Guess I should be really glad I got mine for $300 under MSRP.

Yup... that's the thing.... the PS with black top in the showroom had a sign that it was already sold and upon inquiring with the MA's, they said that it sold for what was on the sticker.... meaning $6k over MSRP.... and they even loaded it up with superflous acces. to boot.... what a scam!!! if only these people knew about NAM... :smile:

They quoted me 6K over for a 2005 hardtop S. They are a holes . The sales guy had a real attitude. Got mine in Texas for sticker.

WOW Alfredo that is insane. I thought they were bad around here - but I bet you the markup is pretty similar for the MCSC's here, just haven't looked. Cute picture, btw.
