+1 for Signal Green....that color is incredible.

Also, would love MINI to make a very pure white, like Alpine white. Pepper white is so yellow and dull to me....just really doesn't do any justice to the car....

OK, been down this road before... You listening BMW/MINI?

More non-metallic color choices such as:

1) BMW Laguna Seca Blue (from E46 M3)




2) A true British Racing Green (Cooper Connaught Green)

3) McLaren Orange




4) Alpine White

5) Sunoco Blue (Penske Racing Blue)




6) French Racing Blue (Matra Blue)

7) Porsche Signal Green


You know you are only limited by your imagination when it comes to color... Besides a MINI looks good in any color no matter what!

Oh well, probably will never happen!

BMW/MINI likes the $$$ they garner from the metallic color option!

I would like to say Orange like Hugger Orange, Or Big bad Orange,, not burnt, sun burst competition or other...

What else would be sweet is gun metal grey...
I like the color options on the Volvo C-30's


What would be nice is the keep making the same colors so i dont want to trade mine in on another one...

+1 on the non metallic green, especially since the F1 is not coming to the US.

+1 Nogaro Blue, love that color-- If they had some truly unique colors that would be cool, it would be reminiscent of Saab in the 60's and 70's when they had some crazy colors on the Sonnet. They had burnt orange, purple just to name a few.

+1000 on the non-metallic green!
Also would like to see a matte silver color. If I remember correctly, BMW showed the Z4 coupe concept in this color. I always thought it was striking.

I'd like to see matte colors. Like matte blue, black, red, etc.

This is probably my favorite color for a car, ever. Not so sure how it would look on a MINI though.

Lime green or that Porsche green up above big time!

As for you flat black types - you have ANY idea how hard that is to take care of? You can't wax it!! BMW makes you sign a waiver to buy a car in that finish.
