Any person paying over $40k for a Mini Cooper needs to have their head examined.

I'd much rather have a Cadillac CTS or an Mercedes Benz C350 for $40k+

It makes sense maybe as a 25K car...but not $40,000.

Wow. Local guy special ordered a Scion TC direct from Japan with all kinds of unobtanium JDM (Japanese domestic Market) stuff on it....that car was over 40K...40K for a TC is nuts..

I wonder if 40K would buy a clean low mile C6 Z06 on the used market?

At what point does a Mini become a Maxi? When the payment is due, it would definitely be a heavy cash flow day.

But it's so darned cute.

Since the MINI like the Miata is sort of a chic car...I wouldn't use the term "Maxi" with it, as it could get confused with a "Maxi" pad...

'blu...you have no idea how lucky you are not to deal directly with THAT aspect of a woman (or three daughters and that aspect) on a monthly basis....

Wow... $40k for a Scion tC FTW.

Does it come with TWO floor mats under the gas pedal for super-extra-awesome sudden acceleration!?

[A Horse With No Name]

I don't know...but I do know at the last Auto cross that Scion in my rear view mirror (it was a TC) didn't have enough INTENDED acceleration....

You can price a JCW Clubman up to $45k before even getting to the accessories.

Pretty close for a 2006 Z-06.

Pretty close for a 2006 Z-06.

...and that would be where my money would go.

If I didn't need a back seat with the next car, I might look at a C5 ZO6...quite a few of these are in pristine shape and coming up for sale at very reasonable prices...
