Hi Swerv, While I can't comment on the residual, I can say that the deal they are offering you is a bit off. My S crested the $30K mark and I got out of there with only first payment down, $435 a month for 36 months at 15K miles a year. I did heavy negotiation on the cost though.

Mini Cooper Hardtop
Written by: balthazar9 on Aug 21, 2012 8:38:58 PM
Just got some residuals from a Philadelphia area Mini dealership for a Cooper Hardtop Auto with 15k miles. They quoted me 64%, 56%, and 41% for 36, 39, and 42 months for the 2012s. The 2013s were 58%, 50%, and 44% for 36, 39, and 42 months. Seems odd that the residuals for the 12s are generally higher. Maybe Mini has opted to inflate them instead of providing lease cash.
