I was kind of surprised how that looked.
I was leaning towards ordering Black/Red roof..
but, now I don't know. I'm driving myself crazy!!! LOL

Dealer has the Red/Black roof coming any day, so we'll have to see how that looks in person.

Thanks for the input!

1. My favorite- you don't see a lot of red on red.
2. Red roofs on black JCW's are already overplayed... I don't like it.
3. Classic badass combo that you can't go wrong with.

#3 because Chili Red with a black roof totally rocks! It's also the fastest! =)

You don't see many matching roof Chili Red vehicles; I'd do that to be different from the pack.
I did the same with my Laser Blue Clubman.

Hahaha G33KGUY that made me laugh!

Our kids picked the red combo's as well.
The are grumpy over the fact we are getting ANOTHER MINI (his and hers) and getting rid of the gas hog Ford Flex.
Time for Daddy to finally have some fun on the roads.

Blk/red is overplayed
Red/blk everyone has

red/red with gun metal rims would be SEXY! and original both = win/win

Pick #1!

My 1st choice would be number #2 ( overplayed? I don't understand that comment when in the real world how many red roofs do you see driving around? ....myself, I have never seen a JCW with a red roof on the street)

My 2nd choice would be a close second, I have always liked the off setting dark roofs ( to me this would be more "overplayed" ie...M3, MB AMG and many wannabes)

My first pick is #3, with #1 following close behind that. The black roof with the blackjack vinyl is a force to be reckoned with.

Well we are going to the dealer on Friday, they have the red/black on the way, but it's a bit heavy $$ GD 2k leather seats, so unless they will deal a bit on it I'll be ordering and as of THIS moment I'm leaning red/red. My mind will change in 5 minutes though lol

Get rid of the silver wheels put black on #2 then put the JCW strips on #2 and delete the white that would be the winner for me.
