I keep it on amber. only time i change it is to show people that it can be changed. i've become used to amber from owning bmws so that is my preference.
I keep it amber because it is not as bright as the other colors, which I find distracting. Most people seem to be very impressed I can change the colors, more so than most other features
For me, it depends. I really like the blue for just driving around at night, but the orange gives just enough light that I can see non-lighted things in the car. I'm a pilot and the orange is only slightly dimmer than the red dome light that Cessna installs in most of their airplanes so you can see things like maps inside the cockpit without having to turn on a flashlight and ruining your night vision. It's downright handy for map reading at night.
And even the simple novelty of changing the colors hasn't worn off, either. It's just another one of those reasons why I really like the Mini.
BL-Urple! Is my choice.
When the nighttime passenger is a lady, I switch the color to something pinker, with her in the car.
It's a cool feature and 'chicks dig ambient lighting.'
Nice job with the photo skills! Looks kool! I rock the blue in my car too!
Thanks, I think I actually took that photo in near complete darkness on a tripod and the shutter open for about 5 minutes . I didn't think it would be so hard to take photos of the ambient lighting. It sure doesn't look that bright in real life.

thats crazy. I thought that you had modded the ambient lights to be brighter and the picture was taken with the garage lights turned on. I would not have known if you had not said.
I can't wait for my car to see what the car really looks like at night.
Mine's always purple - I've got chrome line interior, so the edging on the speedo really picks up reflections from the orange dash and purple overhead. I like the contrast of the 2 colors.
