Abbreviation for Horizon Blue

Over on the Horizon Blue Owner's Club thread, we've discussed the fact that Horizon Blue needs an abbreviation, but HB is already used for Hyber Blue. We've come to the conclusion that Horizon Blue should be HZB or HzB. Please add this abbreviation to the list if this meets your approval. Thanks!

I noticed for the packages, the list is missing the Checkmate package ('06 only). maybe "CK" or something.

Just to add some to the Aftermarket list:

RSD: Rear Seat Delete.
BPV: Bypass Valve.

That's all I can think of right now.

Your 2009 S (assuming a hard top coupe) is an R56. Interchange Yellow is a convertible only color, so when you look around at MINIUSA, make sure you are peaking in the convertible sections.

...Right. I mostly meant interior color options, but IIRC, the "black" used to be a bit more grey than it is now, no?

I believe SheldynCooper means that Mellow Yellow is no longer offered. Similar to some other colors that have been phased out of production.

FYI, Interchange Yellow, heretofore a convertible exclusive, is now offered on the Mini Cooper hardtop. It effectively replaces Oxygen Blue (no longer available) in the color palette.

Umm... the list is missing the GP's "Thunder Blue."

Not that you would have to tell people what color your GP is, but still. :D

The Dark Silver isn't exclusive to the S, right? I think it is available for the justa too.

Correct. Beginning with Model Year 2010, Dark Silver is available on Coopers. Someone else may be able to say exactly when the color became available date-wise.
