Official Moonwalk Grey Love Here :)

I've seen threads on other colors, how about those of us that own Moonwalk Grey Minis?



I'll start. Justa, self-colored roof and mirrors, white bonnet stripes, Sport package, storage package, premium package, cold weather package.

Her name is Batty.

I'm planning to replace the mirror caps with the Black Jack caps. I think they will look great with the grey paint.

Love them both! Both the white and black roof and mirror caps look great with this color.

I just found this thread and had to add to it. It seems there are "Official" club threads for every color Mini except Moonwalk Grey Metallic. Maybe other Moonwalk Mini owners will see this thread an add to it as I have done.

Here is Nigel, a 2015 F56 MCS in our favorite Mini color with the Diamond/Satellite Interior

I nearly changed my mind at the last minute to Moonwalk Grey, but ended up staying with BRG.

Is there a hint of blueish green in there? Looks great! Nice pic.

Hmm, expected more than 18 posts, but maybe MWGM just isn't a very popular color?? I am not a hatch per se, but here are a couple snaps of my Clubby in MWGM the day I picked it up. It really has to be in bright sunlight to pick up the very fine metallic flake, though.

Love mine too. Four door S model with black roof, no stripes, chrome mirror caps, 16" Loop wheels. It's almost "flat" looking in certain lights. Audi had a similar color on the TT awhile back. Its a nice spot between White Silver and the purple-blue hues in the Thunder Grey.

MG is a little on the blue side of grey if the pix do it justice. I've not seen on in person but someone at work has a Grand Cherokee that reminds me of it. Looks good. If I were to get an SUV that would be it.

This grey (using the MINI spelling) is a metallic and I think it has a silver fleck in it that picks up colors from the surrounding environment. I would describe it as a 'true' gray, almost milky due to the fleck. When it gets warmer I will try and get a good closeup pic in sunlight. Closest thing I have is the pic below of my car in the showroom with flash and some natural overcast light coming in through the doors. The pics in my post #19 above were outside that same day, again heavy overcast.

It is quite amazing how much the fleck can influence the color shade. My wife's Patriot is "Natural Green Pearl", which is a really sharp shade of green that really 'glows' in the right sunlight. There is actually a lot of yellow fleck in her paint when you look closely at it (see pics below), but you don't see them when standing a few feet from the vehicle.
