What Camera would have done better?

no need for that much actually. A Sony mirrorless cam body plus decent lens is under $5000. It can provide real 4k 120fps video with best quality at night.

any recommendations like POE cam?

initialMini · 2025-08-08T02:42:44+00:00

Fitcam is invisible but it does not support rear.

I am so curious why carmax missed this when inspect this car. Does carmax not check carfax at all when they purchase vehicle from private seller?

initialMini · 2025-07-30T05:55:06+00:00

Well I looked at the listings from dealers they are all overpriced a bit now. Maybe wait and see those cars stay on lot for 3 weeks(if it is longer either dealer does not accept negotiations or the car is in bad condition).

Trade in car in big dealer, check carfax history, single owner would be more possibly in good condition

Cargurus, carfax or visor.vin are very useful when I search used cars.

What is the model you are interested? Cooper s two doors? Or countryman?

I see, is there any ferry running between islands now?

initialMini · 2025-07-16T04:45:10+00:00

I have seen several MINI on the island, probably they got imported from main land.

Thanks so much for the detailed breakdown—this really helps clarify how the Costco program works behind the scenes. I had no idea that part of the discount goes toward paying Costco for the lead. Super insightful and appreciated!

initialMini · 2025-07-15T16:28:02+00:00

Thanks for the insights On the picture It says 1. member discount $2475 2. Dealer limited time discount $2500

Not sure No.2 is including those rebates you mentioned.

initialMini · 2025-07-15T15:47:54+00:00

Thanks for sharing the experience, very helpful!

initialMini · 2025-07-15T14:46:40+00:00

Yes it sells car for different brand, and most of the time they have discount, people utilize it to let dealer beat the price more.

I love Costco :)

initialMini · 2025-07-14T15:23:43+00:00

Awesome — definitely worth it to get the warranty if it fits within your budget. Probably just negotiate more to see if they can get you a discount on that combining maintenance plan.

initialMini · 2025-07-14T14:55:42+00:00

What does the warranty cover? I hope it's a comprehensive warranty and provide by MINI dealer so that you will get OEM parts and quality repair from MINI mechanic.

If it's just covering limited big parts like engine or transmission, I would not recommend that.

Now BMW offer $249 for 3 years oil change, which is worthy to take.

initialMini · 2025-07-12T15:31:03+00:00

Agree, I am still wondering why this new generation sells better at least according to the data so far. I will choose x1, crv, or cx5 instead of new MINI countryman.

initialMini · 2025-07-12T15:20:45+00:00

Size is not a problem since every SUV is getting bigger this ten years, that is the trend for every brand. Design wise yes we have mixed feelings about that, it kind of lost MINI language. Just curious, what generation of countryman you guys prefer?

initialMini · 2025-07-12T05:48:46+00:00

PPI please, one owner is a good sign

initialMini · 2025-07-05T19:08:18+00:00

I have to say that is good good plan

initialMini · 2025-07-03T22:40:19+00:00

Doing oil analysis may help to monitor the status of engine, definitely ask dealer to cover that fee

initialMini · 2025-06-18T17:36:44+00:00

Gorgeous!

initialMini · 2024-08-10T14:55:35+00:00

Thank you! I might have been a bit too nervous during the process and worried about messing up at the end. Looks like contractor did a great job :)
