Yes Will the world does of course, but have you ever tried to but a Mini. They create a shortage by not shipping to the dealers so the public thinks they are getting a real find, what you are getting is ripped off on the prices and you can't get the car for months what has that got to do with change???

look i like the little car, it handles great and although it doesn't look like a Porsche when behind the wheel you do think you have a go cart with leather seats. The BMW dealers are so arrogant about it that is what ticks me off. They have this, you want it we can get it but we pretend that we can't so pay over sticker wait till heck freezes over and be happy.
Oh well many do wait and pay list or over so who am, their are plenty out there who don't care.

I orderd one for my son, 4 weeks for delivery $500 under MSRP and actually treated better than when I buy a BMW from the same dealer. And it's the only Mini dealer in 122 miles.

Now there's an idea whose time has come. I'd want one with an in-line 2.5 litre 6-cylinder diesel and a proper AWD sytem with more than one Torsen differential, and , of course a conventional 6-speed automatic instead of the dreaded CVT.

And why would anyone want an X3 when they can drive a 3-series wagon?? The wagon drives better - looks better - and probably gets better mileage. I'm sure they payload isn't too different either.
