Hi; I'm new with space blue

So I just ordered a space blue w/ silver roof MCS today. Should be one of the last ones built. Anyway I'm having a hard time deciding on only one thing!...Interior color. It will have for sure anthracite headliner and space gray cloth and no chrome. i'm leaning towards the patina I guess but people here seem to not like that much. Ugh.
Oh well; This really isn't a big problem in the grander sceme of things. Just wanted to say hello.

Tim

You can never beat black interior...my opinion.

hola!

Welcome dogbite! Aww don't listen to what the masses say about interior choices. Just go with what you like. The whole MINI experience is about personalizing it so YOU are happy with your creation of moving art.

Personally I was leaning towards straight silver interior but when I saw the alloy patina in real life I really liked it. Anyway it looked so much more elegant than the straight silver that I ordered it with my jet black MINI.

Never looked back. But go look at it on the showroom and go with your gut. If you don't get it right you can always change it later, but don't let the masses deter you from your own tastes.

Happy Motoring and welcome to our MINI world!

Welcome, I have anthracite in my interior, but right now im switching out my anthracite pieces with my dads chrome pieces. I think the chrome goes nicely with the anthracite, and from what I've seen the piano black finish also looks nice

The in-stock BRG/S MINI S, I bought had black upholstery and silver interior, which I really like because it matches the roof and mirrors. I would like to add-in the chrome line interior though. Good Luck, don't go crazy with the choices, it's the driving that is the plus here and that comes standard on all models.
