    :cornut:Nice car just doesn't seem capture the full measure of this car. I don't think that I saw a price listed. Maybe though, if one has to ask then one really can't afford it.:Thumbsup:

    Thanks for the nice feedback on the car. It is amazing and I'll be bummed when it sells but it just doesn't fit in the overhead bin...

    I've added the information on pricing and mileage. Thanks!

    It blue books for $18,100 BEFORE any mods. $23,000 is a great price for a high performance MINI like this.

    *PRICE REDUCED*

    I've dropped the price to $20,000. Like someone else said, the car blue books at $18,000 with no mods. You know this car is a steal but I have no choice!

    Man, I am so tempted. Being on the other side of the country is my current excuse I am using in my head.

    If this was in NY/CT area it would be hard for me to ignore. After driving it I would be done, but hopefully someone will buy it and end my suffering soon.

    Good luck.

    I am still blown away at how close I came to buying it. Again, wish you the best with the move Darren. Let me know if I can help in any way, I have a pick-up if you need help moving anything... You know I'll still buy it in a heartbeat, for more than $20k too.
