Buying a 2003 MINI Cooper S - need feedback
#26
Like others have said 19,000 is way to high. I bought my 2003 with 29,000 miles on it almost 1.5 years ago and paid $18,500. It was loaded with options. I thought at the time it was a fair price but by no means a steal. I also had 12 months and 21,000 miles left on the warranty at the time.

It appears that everyone got their MCS with low miles and at really good prices, I was wondering if most people were buying their cars from private owners or from a dealer? I would like a used MCS because I would like to believe that I could save a good amount of money by buying used car. However in my area, dealers want $19000-$20000 for a 4-5 year old car. Why would any one pay that kind of money for a used car when you can buy a brand new base model MCS for about $23000. I am really thinking about saving up a little more cash to buy a 2007-2008 MCS which would mean having a new car plus a full factory warranty for 4 years or 50,000 miles.

That sounds like a nice car. LSD is worth extra money for sure. I would get the car checked out by someone and would probably offer $15-$16k expecting them to decline the offer at first while the car does not sell for a while, but I am cheap and look for deals.
