Hey Everyone

Prospective buyer here. I love the community and fanaticism that MINI has! It seems like the hardest decision isn't whether or not to buy but which colors to choose!

Easy decision really, once you see the Oxygen Blue. 'Course then you gotta decide on the other colors, but at least the 'main one' is taken care of..

Actually, you're right. So many choices; so many configurations. Find some MINI events in your area and you'll get to see many of them in the flesh.

Good luck...keep us posted.

Hehe thanks, will do. It's like I have these conflicting forces within me...go with dark silver or british racing green for a classier look or go with my first instinct: Chili Red with Black roof/mirrors and the Rooster Red upholstery and trim.

Zach,

I'll cast a vote for BRG, it is a classic "fast-car" color, (remember those Hot Wheels cars?), which looks great with either the White or Black roof & I've seen BRG-body & BRG-roof MINIs that I liked too. BRG is a little more subtle palette-wise than some of the brighter colors, and BRG seems to morph into an almost black-ish hue during the dawn & dusk times of the day; just MHO. Good luck with your deliberations. However, you need to know that whatever color MINI you decide on, you will find yourself color-coordinating your wardrobe to complement your MINI's color scheme.
