I think you mean you are deciding on a color for your MCS not MC. Electric blue is a color only for MCS.

My vote goes for Electric blue/W if you are not getting a sunroof and LY/B if you are.

Why do you care what we think, anyway? And what's the rush?

Depends on how much you want to stand apart from the crowd. The EB really stands out, as there aren't many that have it. The LY/B is cool too, but there are a lot more of them on the road. I'd lean toward EB.

Good luck deciding!

IB/W

And here's my rationale:

I was hellbent on EB/W, and then I saw an IB/W in person and it was bloody amazing. Succumb to the IB...

And then again. EB DOES look really smart with a black lid...


I've a feeling that I'm not being terribly helpful here.

When will EB be available on the Cooper - I remember hearing something awhile back that it would be available on the MC along with Dark Silver...and that Pepper White was going to be available on the S. I see Pepper White is already available on the S...does anyone else remember hearing anything about this?

EB will be available on the MC, though I don't know when. And PW is already an S option. Don't know about DS.

Oh, and some kind of orange/red/rust color is supposed to come out at some point this year for the MC.

To bad you can't get SG/B

Even though I own a LY/W I must say go for the EB/W. The extra $400.00 for that sparkles is definately worth it.

thanx everyone,
it is still a hard choice. umm i'm getting a MC and in canada the MC is available in EB for all of the 04 models.
and for those who asked what is the rush my answer is that i kinda ordered my mini last week but i told em to wait a week in case i wanted to change anything in my order and friday is the last day i can make any changes. I initially ordered the EB but i've only seen it on MCS and havent seen it on MC and i loved it on MCS. But my bro was telling me i might get bored of the color after a while. on the other hand i love the LT/B so i couldnt decide and then i came to u guyz for help.
thanx for all the responses; I'm still waiting for more

" my baby is due in two month"
