I was one of the first people to sign up for a formal request to buy a Mini from one of Mexico City's three BMW dealers (Munchen Motors).
Last week I was called by a dealer's saleslady who asked me if I was still interested in buying the Mini. My reply was obvious. She asked me then to show up and give a deposit payment of $5,000 US to guarantee that I will buy the car. So yesterday, I showed up and paid the money at the dealer's cashier (The cashier couldn't spell Cooper, he wrote Couper on the receipt)
The saleslady told me that they do not have a final price yet for the Mini Cooper (115hp), but that she estimates (?) $21,000 USD. Also, I was not guaranteed any color choice, but I was told that since I will be one of the first, I might have a chance to choose. My preferences: Silver/Black, Red/White, Yellow/White.
Apparently, the Cooper S will make it to Mexico until late September 2002.
I was told that my car would be delivered early March 2002, although a late February delivery could happen. We'll see.
I will keep the forum posted on the progress of my experience.
Have a great MINI time!
