Thinking About Mini ALL4

I am thinking of getting ALL4 S but wasn't sure if the dealer will go over invoice or msrp. I will be trading in 335xi as I want something more fuel efficient and fun to drive.

As for getting packages which are worth getting it. I am in northeast so mini dealers are not that many as BMW's. I think the auto trans in mini is gm sourced any issues with the reliability as in mine its a ZF not gm.

Just curious: how much more efficient is the ALL4 over the 335xi? I know the 335's get close to 30 mpg on the highway (EPA says 27, but we get higher). My wife's 530xi also gets about 29 mpg.

Looks like the ALL4 is only 31 mpg highway. Not sure you will save much on gas.

Nice looking car though!
