PH (aka Purple Haze)

We did, and I wish we still did. If they'd still offered PH in 08, we would have got that instead of DS for Shawn.

So I see the PH owners club, I want to know who heads it up if you will to find out some more information about the color.

Sorry to hear about your 'loss.' Hopefully, you'll come across another!

As a bit of trivia, the other markets (Canada, UK, etc) called this colour Black Eye Purple.

Curious as to why MINI USA called it Purple Haze?

Probably because the original mini was popular in the hippie era. We all know what Purple Haze really is and Im not talking about the hendrix song.

BEP MINI here. Wasn't too crazy about it at first...but it quickly grew on me and since it is rather rare (only used two years, I believe) it makes our MINIs that much cooler. Really like the car!
