Midnight Blue MCS

Does anyone have photos of a midnight blue metallic MINI? I'm not sure what the official color was called, but it's a deep dark navy metallic. I saw one on a tow truck last week (accident) and thought the color was amazing.

Are you thinking of something besides Indie Blue and Hyper blue - something darker?

Midnight blue? That's Astro Black.

Maybe not Space Blue. It's GORGEOUS, but it's not "deep dark navy"
Astro Black can look like "deep dark navy"

Space Blue up close to me looks like "deep dark navy". But if you pull it into different lights, it may not. It's my favorite MINI color, to be honest!

I went and looked at Astro Black, and it wasn't the color I was asking about. AB does look kind of bluish depending on where the light hits it. Searching the boards for pics, I think it's the Space Blue I saw. Too bad they didn't keep it for 07....

Thanks everyone for helping!

Then, I bet it's Space Blue One is in our neighborhood, and I just love it. I think it's more Space Blue looking than Navy I hope the OB doesn't go away as quickly as Space Blue did
