I'm selling Bean!

or trading him in, however it works better! It's been a fantastic run, but it's time - I want the 2012 MINI Coupe, but if I find that I don't like it I'll buy another MCS - I can't wait to see the new build configurator up on miniusa.com!!

So, unless they introduce a new yellow that color is officially off my pallet (only because it's not available anymore)

If you were buying a new MINI what color would you choose and why?

Ut-oh...have you talked it over with Bean?

Other than my favorite with red and black stripes, if I got another one, I'd go for just the opposite...black with red stripes/accents (no chrome on this one...gasp!)

Good luck!

I can see why you like that color - it's happy!

Bean has Chrome too, and I think I'm skipping it this time too!

I saw a solid black MCS at Schomp of the weekend. It was really pretty! I could picture an all black with shiny red mirror caps!!

When I ordered Bean I had actually started with BRG. I ended up going Mellow Yellow because I was at the dealership and saw one and fell in love. Been pondering BRG - I wonder if they'll come out with any new colors this fall.

I'd go with any of the metallic colors since they clean up nicely. If the 08 Clubman came in yellow at the time I bought mine I probably would of made an exception and made it look like a taxi.

El Kabong, my '06 MCS was Pepper White/Black with chrome. When I ordered my '11, I went with a very different build. Mozart is HzB/Black and blacked out wherever I could. I'm enjoying the change.

The new BRG is beautiful, I almost ordered that instead of the Horizon Blue. I think a BRG with Lime green caps and accents would be cool.
