BRG2/W

The only thing staying white on this thing will be the roof, and maybe some stripes.

Mods planned already:

Carbon fiber mirror caps
De-chrome almost everything

And I'm still trying to figure out how I am going to get my Challenge Wheels powder coated without giving up my MINI.

Your Jedi Mind tricks do not work on him!

Man, I was hoping to see another Laser Blue on the road.

Edit: Oh you decided already. :(

Sorry, I really like the Laser Blue but it is just a tad too bright, the BRG2 is a nice touch of dark with shininess that looks great, especially when the sun hits it and you can see the yellow specks.

I like the white roof but don't like the white mirror caps at all.

Dohhh...you're right. Maybe NavyNUKE is really Jabba?

Not weak minded.

Hah! Well maybe I'll be the first BRG2 with the JCW body kit, I haven't seen any yet.

Oh well, I had to try. In any case, you really can't go wrong with the colors that Mini has to offer. I guess that's what makes Mini, well a MINI!

I'd like to cast a vote for BRG2. I happen to be the proud owner of a Clubman wearing BRG2, although it doesn't (yet) have a white roof. The neat thing about this color is that it changes with the ambient light.

I kinda dig the neon green caps too, you're painting your roof white?

We're putting those caps on our Cosmic Blue Countryman along with some other green goodies. All will be revealed after the Dragon...

Actually, I'm going to have it done in white vinyl while I'm at AMVIV - easier to undo if I don't like it. I've heard that the reason MINI doesn't offer a white roof on the Clubman is because it looks like the car has an upside-down Boston Whaler on the roof -- we'll see!

It's a shame I won't have my MINI by the Dragon, oh well, I'll drive through it on my road trip to South Carolina this summer, that green on your CM will look quite nice.

Charlie's pictures actually made me more excited for BRG2 than I was.

Eclipse Gray is the closest thing to my Dark Silver, so I'd vote that way or towards the BRG/Black roof. My fiancee nixed the laser blue too, and once i saw it in the bright sunlight, I wasn't as crazy about it either.
