When did IY become available for MCCs?

When I ordered my MCSC my MA said that IY was an exclusive color for them. Today I was playing around and say IY on the configurator for the MCCs. When did MINI change the availability of IY?

He may have meant that IY was a cabrio-only color like Hot Orange and Cool Blue were for the 1st Gens.

Maybe, but she started to build a MCC and when I told her IY she told me I'd need an S to get that (which I wanted in the 1st place.) In the end, not a big deal, just wondering.

I think initially the IY color was for the "S" only, but that changed about a month after the launch (end of April) I believe.

Either way, it's still exclusive to the Cabrio.

Hmmm..I thought it was for both. The cabrio I drove on Saturday was an IY and it was a cooper (i loved it).
