I have been looking at some pics and I am thinking the white roof will look pretty nice with the sunroof. Is there enough contrast from the dark silver to the white to look ok? I know the pure silver would not work with white at all.

 

NO NO NO Keep the DS with DS roof! It HAS to be the coolest combo other than IB/IB.

Seriously, not only is DS/DS unique, it looks super classy and COOL!

Yes.

I am a white roof and wheels person. It's the only way to go, sunroof or no.

 

I'd say that DS/DS is more aggressive looking and less common than DS/W which is cooler in the hot summer.

Some people don't like the contrast in color between the white roof and sunroof being black, this contrast would be much less with a DS/DS with sunroof.

If you like the white look then white roof and mirrors and white wheels is pretty classy/dressy.

If white is not your style then DS/DS lends itself to lots of good looking wheel options from anthracite to chrome, black or various silver tones.

 

Here are some pictures of my Dark Silver / White

 

I prefer the Dark Silver / Black Roof. Looks real classy.

 

Does anyone have a picture with the dark silver roof with sunroof from above?

 

Order what YOU want!

Your MINI should be your MINI.....

But, I"d not get the white roof/white wheels (that's just me - my MINI is all black as I wanted a solid color car).

 

I have a pure silver MC with black top. I love the way it looks but the black is always dirty. I ordered all dark silver thinking it would look cleaner. I do like the contrast with the silver and black. They white seems to contrast with the dark silver some. Still thinking.

 

A picture from above of a all Dark Silver MCS with sunroof would be great.

 

The nice thing about Dark Silver / White Roof / White Wheels is that in 22 months of driving my MINI, I have *never* seen another MINI with that color combination.

All Dark Silver with silver v-spokes or s-lites is pretty common, as is Dark Silver / White with the silver v-spokes or silver s-lites.

 

I like the contrast of a white roof. It's part of the tradition of MINI.

I think the whole idea behind the MINI is to order either a white or black contrasting roof. This is one aspect that yet sets the MINI apart from other mundane cars.

I think DS/W or DS/B are very nice.

Having said that, there are solid body and roof colors that really have grown in me (And they are less usual): CR/CR, IB/IB and LY/LY.

But in the end I much prefer a MINI with a different color roof from the rest of the car.

 

DS/DS rulez!

 

DS/W was my second choice just behind IB/W - I love the way the white looks with the dark silver. But like someone before me said - it's your MINI.

P.S. White white white white hahahaha

 

I have a DS/W, no sunroof and got that combo because I felt it maintained the
legacy of the classic Mini's contrasting roof and body color scheme. It also projects
a brighter feeling than the DS/DS or DS/B. It's a catchy color........just make a decision and don't drive yourself crazy with it.

 

If you are going to change at all (and I'm not saying you should) it should be to a black roof. Everyone knows that DS/BL rules the road

 

>>DS/DS rulez!

Do you have a pic of your car from above it in the sunlight?

 

DS/DS here; you may check out some pics in my Gallery

 

Just my opinion if it counts :smile: ... but a MINI is NOT REALLY A MINI without:

1. a contrasting roof
2. the center speedo

Either one missing and it's just another people mover

I have CR/W btw ...

 

Yes.

 

I personally like the DS/B combination better, but DS/DS does look pretty clean.

What does that make my MINI that has neither contrasting roof nor center speedo?

DS/DS is second only to BRG/BRG this is the coolest classiest

 

All color combos are about personal taste, and a MINI is cool looking, period. That being said, the MINI roof is all about contrast. I've got a fairly subtle PS/B MC, and am switching to even more contrast w/ my currently ordered CR/W w/ white alloy wheels. The other best contrasts, IMO, are IB/W and BRG/W- both w/ white wheels and mirror caps.
