I found there is a MINI cooper club in the forum. But right now I am driving an old grandma's car which always cost me a dent in my wallet. So just I start thinking getting another car. I love the look of MINI so much so maybe I wanna purchase one.
But I have a lot of concern mostly financially. I just repaired my old car by $2,000. My wallet felt really sore after that. I look around those 2-3 yrs old MINI cooper s. They usually cost 23k~25k in my area (SF bay area). I also hear that the MINI dealers are super tough. It's hard to bargain with them. Sometimes people pay extra over MSRP. I could finance MINI with a little down-payment. errrrr... So usually how much do you guys bargain on MINI?
Also people said since MINI is a sports car, stick shift should be much more fun. Unfortunately I could only drive an automatic one which means I may lose fun driving. Maybe my dad can teach me the stick shift when I am back home this May. Does that sound good?
I kinda want to get mini cooper s. Or you guys think mini cooper is good enough for daily use?
Thanks for reading my rambling. But any idea on MINI will be appreciated.
