2008 - Mini Cooper S on 2040-cars
Rena Lara, Mississippi, United States
This is NOT your run of the mill used Mini Cooper! I ordered this car for myself in 2008 and ran down the option list missing only the navigation system as I felt it was a silly option. Everything else, was added! Most of the cars out there were produced for the lot and lack many of the options to keep the pricing down. Not this one...it was for ME! This car is a fair weather car only as I have other cars to drive...this is my "fun" car and it has fulfilled my every dream! Its fun to drive and it gets great gas mileage too! I relocated the car to my second home in Arizona in 2012(it was the best long drive I ever had) and now I have the desire to have a convertible to drive when I am there so I have to part with my beloved Mini. Option list is: MSRP $21,200.plus $650 delivery Lounge Leather Seating $2000 Convenience Package $1500 Cold Weather Package $500 Premium Package $ 1500 Anthracite Headliner $250 17" rims $750 Steptronic Trans $1250 Stability Control $500 Chrome line interior $250 Rear Fog Lamps $100 Xenon headlight $500 Satalite radio $1000 subscription is paid FOREVER! White Turn Signals $100 JCW side skirts $ 1500 plus labor Mini car cover, mini checkered side scuttles, professional window tint, Lamin-X over headlights, Carbon Fiber trim, Viper stripes, and on and on............ Look at the pictures and see for yourself. I even have donut spare tire in case you want to take it on a long trip like I did ( S models do not come with spare. they have run-flat tires) The most recent full service has been done by Scottsdale Mini this January and all service updates have been performed. I have all records for the car since it was delivered. It is absolutely like a new car! Not a scratch, nick, ding EVER!..... NOTHING but a brand new car! All rims are perfect as well. Having spent most of its life under a cover, in a climate controlled garage, and on a battery tender, the car looks as if it was delivered yesterday!. While I am very proud of my car, I am also realistic that it has depreciated over the years and will make the second owner a great car at a great price! No sales tax as I am a private party. My reserve reflects the current market value. The reason for selling is I have the "hots" for a convertible or I would keep this forever....wife says "one toy at a time" so it has to go....plus the garage is getting cramped! If you have any questions, please ask before you bid. Any shipping costs are not included in this auction. Please budget this when bidding as it will be additional unless you plan to pick the car up.

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
Street Glory Mappers turning cars into dynamic billboards like this
Fri, 04 Jul 2014A French marketing firm with the impenetrable name of Street Glory Mappers is literally turning cars into billboards. Of course, we've all seen vehicles painted up for promotional use, but this company is taking that concept even further by including video.
Street Glory Mappers equips the vehicles with a large video screen behind the windshield to play whatever is being advertised. According to the company's promo, it may even be possibly to sync up the vehicle's lights with the show, as well. The firm claims that it's a great form of temporary, mobile marketing because the car can arrive at the location, play the video and then go away when the prospective audience leaves.
While it doesn't necessarily seem any more effective than other forms of advertising, the firm's idea is at least unobtrusive. After all, it's easier to ignore a stationary car than a person handing out flyers. However, vehicle flashing its lights and playing video could certainly distract other drivers.
Mini officially reveals Frozen Black Countryman and Paceman
Sat, 19 Oct 2013BMW has been offering Frozen editions of its cars for several years now highlighted by matte paint and very limited production, and now Mini is getting in on the game with Frozen Black versions of the Paceman and Countryman. Unlike our report from earlier in the week, these models will not wear the Batman-sounding Black Knight name, but instead, like the BMW models, will be dubbed Frozen Edition. That previous intel also had it that production of the Frozen Edition Minis would be limited to just 60 units. Now official, Mini has not confirmed how many - or few - of these limited edition models it would build.
The Frozen Black paint adds silicates to the lacquer finish creating a "matted impression," which sounds like it should be easier for owners to maintain and wash, although Mini still advises against waxing or polishing. This special paint will be offered on all S, Diesel and John Cooper Works versions of the Paceman and Countryman, though it's not clear as of this writing if any will be offered in the US. Mini's press release for the Frozen Black Paceman and Countryman is posted below.
