Pics of the new Cooper with silver roof

SB asked for pics so I thought I would post them in here for the locals to enjoy. We will pick it up 2 weeks from today and expect to bring it out to a MINI gathering near you soon!

Silver bonnet stripes will be added either before delivery or shortly after we return from Ohio with the Purple People Eater! Will be fun to be a 2 MINI family!

That color combination is very nice, Yucca. I can't wait to see it in person.

Oh, I love those wheels. I haven't seen them before. I may have to put some 15"s on the S.

You two have a safe trip. :smile:

No, its silver, but I don't think the silver roof will ever look all that great in pictures. Something that has to be seen to be truly appreciated.

The wheels are the new "delta spokes". I think they are great too!

Ain't that the truth?? I may have my random theoretical opinions about MINI colors, but when I see them in person I'm just caught up in how gorgeous they all are. This was especially true w/ Solid Gold....I'd have to say love it, too.

Anyway that silver roof is fantastic...if I was buying an '06 MINI I'd be all over that, yup!!! Yucca, congrats to you and the missus. A two MINI family....buddy you are livin' the dream!!!!!

choice

I think that light silver single color checkerboard bonnet stripes will tie it all together nicely.

PurplePeopleEater, you picked out a great looking color combination and with silver checkered stripes, it'll look very sharp. That color combination will be nice to get some night pictures under the lights. Make sure Yucca has the batteries charged for the camera.


Mightymouse, I may be wrong but I believe that is how the standard antenna base now looks. The rod is just not attatched yet.

Mucho Very Nice.

For some reason it reminds me of a friend's 1971 Barracuda in Plum Crazy.



That thing got a HEMI ?
