Passive Solar enthusiast annoyed.
I, as a 21 year member of the Passive Solar Home Club, am annoyed at the misleading marketing line to lure unsuspecting Chili Red members to fall into. I got onto the "web" to research work sh...stuff, and I'm suckered into this.
I like the tunnel shot. But I have to ask, why on the "wrong" side? Have any sunset pictures?

At the risk of starting a controversial twist to the thread, and realizing that I am fairly new to the whole Mini world, I heard from the friend of my Aunt's sister on my Uncle's cousin's side that the Solar Red color was actually developed for Mini owners whose unexplained sensitivity to the power and passion of Chili Red had caused some unfortunate moments of distress. According to this same individual, the good folks at Mini Cooper realized that there was a market out there for folks who craved the excitement of a red car, but desired a more sedate, mature approach to the giddy sensation of driving a red-hued Mini. Honest.

OT: I see you live in Westminster. I use to live in Arvada. If you're not already a member of mini5280 you should consider it. They also have a forum here on NAM. Also, Randy Webb's Webb Motorsports is down off of C470 and Sante Fe.

Sorry I missed this thread earlier, my Solar Red was delivered in December and a week later MINI announced the Solar Red Color would be discontinued after April production, making it a limited production run.
Now that production has been discontinued has anyone seen what kind of numbers of this color was produced ?
