For me it depends on what interior "theme" you are going with. If you are choosing colorline, or have colored seats or trim, then I agree that it kind of breaks up the flow of the colors.
I have a very monochromatic theme inside and out (everything inside is black, grey, and chrome and outside is black, white and chrome)...for me it works on the inside because there is no color.

I had a very specific color scheme I was going for...black, grey and chrome. Molly has the Fluid Silver Interior Surface as well so there is a bit of a shine ther and so the chrome with its shine compliment the Fluid Silver. With the OB color everything seems to work really well...I wouldn't change a thing!!

Agreed. First three images here might help

I didn't want it and my wife did. Ordered without it but then added it pre-production as a surprise for wifey and now one week after picking the car up, I decided that I like it very much with the brushed alloy and grey line trim - it is a very nice detail.
(Looks even more dramatic against the black in the links in ACooperS post!!)

On a related topic: I did NOT order Chrome Line Exterior and I wonder if I should have. Also, I'm thinking about a Chrome Scoop, which I'm assuming I can get aftermarket. I'm wondering if it would make the car too flashy - I think it looks kind of cool in photos. Any thoughts?

I have the chrome line on my 08 MCS and like it a lot with the piano black
Be aware that several NAMers have noticed that on newer order models chrome doesn't come around the speakers in the doors, which the MINI configurator shows as part of the chrome line option. There's a separate thread on this somewhere....
Enjoy your ride!

I think the chrome line adds a cetain amount of calss on the vehicle but it depends on what your color pallette is. I have a Chili Red and black with a Black interior [anthracite headliner/piano black dash] with red color line. I think the chrome just adds a little bit of "something". But it is all personal taste. As long as it is a MINI, it will be cool no matter how you configure it.
