Not sure... A part of me wants to save some money on a car note.... So I might try and land something maybe a little cheaper. Buddy is already hitting me up to buy his modded '05 S.. So well see..
I agree the price vs mileage is a little high. It has some nice mods but I would only offer 10K as my high number and start at 8.5K and work up to 10K.
This also concerns me:
1. The car has had the SuperCharger rebuilt.
(Eaton does not make a rebuild kit for the M45 Supercharger period)
If the dealer installed an new one that's a different story.
2. In the meantime the supercharger has been ported for more airflow
(By Who)
3. The car has been tuned accordingly. (again by who)
An un-modded MINI in the same condition is worth more money. Those mods while nice do not make that MINI worth more & they do raise more questions as to the MINIs condition.
My father was an engineer at Honda, retired now, and I asked him why the air bags on my Acura didn't go off when I rear ended a car on the highway at 60-65. He said it was because the computer was able to compute the delta v of the the impact based on speed and the fact I was standing on the brake and decided that the air bag wasn't needed. Guess it take a little more than a sensor going off to trigger them. Keep in mind, the front end of my RSX was totally destroyed and the car I hit had minimal damage and was able to drive off.
