Where are the Electric Blue F56's???

I've been on the hunt to see EB F56 pics, but not having the best of luck. Looked through all 29 pages of the F56 picture thread and didn't see one EB.

If you have an EB F56, please post your pics. Trying to decide on color and having a really difficult time. Lol. Going to go peruse the Mini dealership today to see what colors they have so I can see them in person.

EB is in the top three choices at the moment.

You can use an Advanced Search to find pictures of 3rd Gen Electric Blue MINIs.

Here's one ...

It might be easier to find pictures of the F55 in EB and pretend it is the F56
I too had this color in my top 3 when contemplating the F56 purchase and wanted to see it IRL before making a decision. (Have not purchased yet, leaning towards the F55)
Here are pics of one I took at the dealer:

Nice pics, everyone! And thank you. I went to the dealer and they had about 60 or more Mini's on the lot. They had 2 F56's and 1 F55 in EB. I love the color. They had every color available. And I mean EVERY color.

With that said, three colors really surprised me in person. White Silver, British Racing Green and Blazing Red. Another one that looked really good was Volcanic Orange.

I'm now even more undecided about color. Lol. They had a few unlocked and I was able to sit in them and see features without the hassle of a salesman vulturing around me. It was quite nice.

Ugh. This is going to be very difficult.

White Silver and Volcanic Orange are my faves. I like all the Mini colors, but BRG is one I just see so often I think it's because it's always been available whereas other colors come and go. I don't think my 2007 color Sparkling Silver is still around. I think it was new that year.
