My Take: The MINI Coopers are looking quite good this month with the 09 models out, you can take advantange of the super high residual values. The money factors are less than desirable, but the residual does help offset the high interest. Word of caution, this car has boat load of options, the more you add, the more expensive it gets. There aren’t any major inceptives here, but you can probably get the lowest rate without a security deposit. Expect payments in the mid-$300 to high-$300 range for a well-equipped model of the Cooper S and high-$200, low-$300 for the base Cooper.
