Now that you have your car, do you wish you had gotten another color?
DEFINITELY not! I actually somewhat expected to regret it as I purchased my PW/B off the lot mostly out of sheer impatient. My original SS/B MINI was totaled after waiting 4 weeks for it and the PW just so happened to exactly match my options except for the color. However now I love this color even more than the first. Tis BEAUTIFUL
I can't remember where I saw this--can't find it in a search here on NAM--but I thought it is appropriate. Ever since I read this, I've been looking around. He's right! In my childhood I remember a Nash Rambler in pink and gray, a Buick in baby blue and white, and (oh wait--those aren't exactly good examples!).

I must say that I have NEVER wished I had another color, because it is such an odd color..GOLD All the way!!! even when my brother went out and got one that was silver, i still like my color the best!!! If i had to choice another color though, it would have to be some other very odd color!!

Well, I almost drove away with NFR/W but ended up with BRG/W, it all came down to delivery. Both are excellent colors, but I feel that the end result is right for me and the car. I think I would have had the remorse if I went with the NFR to be honest.
I bought my EB/EB '03 Cooper the day after I first saw it, and the color was the first thing that caught my attention. Then when I saw the JCW badges, it was just a matter of negotiating the price......
The only other color I like as much is Red, but the EB is more rare so I'm completely happy with it.........

Had the beautiful Silk Green been available I would have ordered that. I was hard pressed to decide between Oxygen Blue (or was it Laser??) and Mellow Yellow. Then I happened to see a PW/B in a parking lot and I had an epiphany. I think some of the retired colors are the most beautiful and I thought the '07 colors were a bit too conservative.
I specifically didn't want the heartbreak of metallic paint, but I really think it's beautiful and my next MINI may have metallic.
Yeah, I want another color, but in addition to, not instead of the one I got.

Out of all the current colors mini has to choose from, i wouldnt change mine. But i just found out that they are adding 3 new colors for 09. Lime Green, some sort of bright orange, and a sherbert pink. I really want a pink mini! maybe not sherbert pink, but some pink. but i also love my mini's color as it is now. i have an OB/W w/ white bonnet stripes
This discussion reminds me of Monty Python's Holy Grail...
KEEPER: What is your favorite color?
GALAHAD: Blue. No yel-- Auuuuuuuugh!
I'm loving my Sparkling Silver MCSC, every day a little more, in the sunshine in the rain, in a box, with a fox...

On our day to Test Drive, Hubby and I saw an OB/W in the garage of the Dealership and it looked very Nostalgic, very clean and crisp. I think we both knew instantly that that was the color for us.
