No more British Racing Green on the lots?

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently in the market for a new or used MCS in British Racing Green with black bonnet strips . I have been checking online and at some dealers and it seems that no one has any BRG MCS left. Even in the used market there are barely any. Since the 2010 MCS are coming soon I'm wondering if its too late to custom order an 09 BRG with LSD?

just try checking with your local Mini dealer & find out -- easy solution. Happy hunting! BTW, BRG is the bestest - good choice

Just remember, there are only two colors. "British Racing Green" and everything else.

No, I won't sell you mine. They do seem hard to find.

Nice color choice! If Laser Blue hadn't been available, I probably would have gone with BRG. Unfortunately, the only advice I can give is to keep checking the closest dealerships, or perhaps leave your information with them, in case someone trades in a BRG cooper. Good luck!

I'm in the LA and Orange County in CA. I won't have time to visit the dealers until this weekend, but until then I've been checking dealer inventories online and checking autotrader to see if I could find one. If I can't find a used or a new 09 one I guess I'll just have to place an order for a 2010 then
