So, I was looking into pricing for a 2012 Mini Cooper S recently, and man it’s like everyone’s got different info. I checked a couple of places, and the MSRP can be tricky to nail down, mostly because it’s been a few years since they were new. One dude at a dealership said they typically start around $24,000 new, I think.
But then I found online listings with some sitting at like $13,000 to $17,000. I’m guessing the price dropped after a couple years. And I remember when my buddy bought his Mini quite a bit later, so maybe there was some leftover stock or something?
Anyways, I was also thinking, what about taxes or dealer fees at the time? Wouldn’t those mess with the pricing too?
So, basically, the MSRP varies quite a bit from what I’ve seen. Have you guys ran into similar numbers when you shopped for one? You think the MSRP back then was much different from today’s prices?
Back in '12, I had a blast driving my Mini Cooper S around New York City, it was a gem. I’m pretty sure the MSRP was like $26,000 or so at that time, but prices jumped around a bit.
