The Official Ice Blue Owners Club

Well, I'm not a part of the club, and probably won't be anytime soon, but as the closest thing to Oxygen Blue in the MINI paint booth right now (unique, non-metallic blue), I'm interested to see some pictures of the new Ice Blue MINIs.

So, lets see and hear about your new/ordered Ice Blue MINIs!

FWIW, I've scoured the internet for REAL pictures of the new Ice Blue, and have been nearly empty-handed. I searched through the online inventories of literally the entire eastern half of the country's MINI dealers, and found real pictures of just ONE Ice Blue MINI.

Found some pictures of an Ice Blue Clubman S here.

http://www.billjacobsmini.com/Vehicl...e-IL/934610063

Also, I ordered an Ice Blue Clubman S today! The color looks gray blue in person. The color is kind of funky. It won't be a popular color for sure. If you get one, you can be sure you will have the only Ice Blue in your neighborhood.

Congrats! Yeah, in some pictures it's barely blue at all, but in the good quality ones, I really like it a lot. But yeah, it's not going to overtake Chili Red or Pepper White in sales volume anytime soon.

I think it definitely looks better with the white roof and accents.

Thanks for the pictures!

I'm ordering my ice blue mini hardtop next Sunday and the final decision is the black top or the ice blue top....

I'm a big fan. If I hadn't just bought my R56 last year, I'd be in the market for an IB Clubbie!
