SG - SiG for Silk Green SG - SGo for Gold? also, DS is listed twice. |
Great resource, biggripper, job well done. :thumbsup:
...and it's Solar Red, not grey...you were tired at that point, eh? :wink: |
there are 2 'SGs' in your list
|
DS listed twice
|
having been on the board a while now thats all pretty much self explanatory but it would have been a HUGE help when i first got here to know what everyone was talking about. Maybe make this a sticky in the 1st gear forum?
|
I agree with soofle, this would be a great sticky for the 1st gear forum! Perhaps, in addition to colors, we could also add all the abbreviations we use for the other "amenities" on our cars. Even after three years of MINI, I still get corn-fused sometimes! :confused:

Wasn't there a limited Root Beer model? Thought I saw one at the DCMM Backroads & Battlefields run.

Most people have been using
MCC for MC cabrio rather than MCc or MCSC for MCS cabrio rather than MCSc What about CVT for the automatic continuously variable transmission for the MC? MC CVT? LSD for Limited slip differential? (this is first gear) What about Cosmos Black? CoB? For Silk Green how about SiG maybe SG for Solid Gold. Good thing we don't have turbo or twin charged from the factory. |
Since we're at it, it's spelled: CONVERTIBLE, not CONVERTABLE.
Thanks for the effort in putting a list together :thumbsup: Mario |

PH (Purple Haze) is referred to a BEP (Black-Eye Purple) across the pond :wink:
|
Personally, I think DS belonged on the list twice - but that's just my opinion. :lol: :thumbsup:
We're waiting to order an '06 MCSa, the wife originally wanted CR/B, then thought CR/W was the way to go, but I'm pressing for SB/S or SR/S. Suhweet!!! And that's no BS. . . :grin: |
I tried to make changes based on suggestions so far. Reload the page and see.
I for the life of me do not see DS in the list twice. I do however see that it is right underneathe PS...a very different color. Royal Grey is one of the new colors for '06 Sean |

Coin Dark Silver .......... Haze Pepper White ....... Nougat Liquid Yellow ........ Nacho British Racing Green was always BRG. |
Why not alphabetize them? (My librarian side is showing.) :smile:
Also, maybe list the years available: IB = Indi Blue (2002-2004) Note that it is spelled Indi Blue (not Indy Blue). :roll: James |
I alphebetized the Color list.
Sean |
Thanks. :thumbsup:
I'm pretty sure Cosmos Black was an MC color only. James |

Roof colors
The cabrios also have blue and green tops available.

See, Gripper? This'll teach ya to try and help!!
:wink: :lol: :grin: |
Thank You!!
I have not been on here for very long and I have slowly been picking up all the lingo and jargon...but one that did throw me off for a while was MFSW (Multi-Function Steering Wheel) so that would be a great addition. Also this was a great idea, and thanks!:thumbsup:
