Ahh, I feel so happy that Boo influenced someones MINI color choice.
Here is a rearend shot of Boo as well

Oh my Now you're making me have second thoughts about choosing Hyper Blue. And the fact that I could've saved $420 in the process makes it more difficult. Nice grill BTW.

I just found this thread for the first time and had to include some of mine... they have all been posted here in other threads, but this one is important!

Black is beautiful baby!

Black cars look better in the shade.

Pleeezze, Anyone can see that Astro Black is not REALLY black, rather just dirty dark silver.

Jet Black, is the real black. Accept no substitutes.

Astro Black is a very pretty color, but to me, it looks like a metallic super-dark midnight blue. Nice try, saakey!

Astro Black is Dark Metallic Blue in the sunlight.... Thus, not black.

Here's a real black Mini tho, and a *defibrilating shock* for the thread to ressurect it:
