Cliff notes:
Wanted to buy a cheap car that would serve as something I could drive in the winter and as something my wife could drive if I ever need to take the X7 out (as my M3 is 6MT and she's unable and unwilling to learn to drive stick). Original budget was $25k, which then increased to $30k. Car needed to be small so as not to take up too much garage space.
Started getting more serious about the process this month... test drove a few cars. Was all set to find something within budget..... up until the moment my wife learned that mini makes a convertible. The rest as they say is history.
