Is it just me, but were are the Salt and Pepper MCS??? or MC??? I know of 2 on the Mc side, but I have not seen 1 on the MCS. Makes me wonder why? I know white gets dirty fast, but I think the S/P MC look hot! Like the one in Italian Job with the aero kit. WOOOO weeeeee HOT!

If you got a Salt and Pepper MCS let me see a PIC!

P.S
To those who don't know what salt and pepper means: White mini with black hood stripes, and black mirrors, maybe even with a black top.

Moby,

I believe that Pepper White is an exterior color on the MCS from the 2004 model year. In other words, this week is when they begin producing them. Expect the first ones in North America by month's end, and at the dealer by early October.

As for actual Salt and Pepper MC and MCS well, just check out anyone's after a visit to the local McDonald's drive-thru.

The MCS in the Italian Job is not Pepper White.

It's a custom paint job.

The PDX Mini club had a covered bridge run last weekend and there one pepper white with black roof MC at the event. It actually looked really good. The only color we didn't have was a yellow. We had 18 cars total and had a blast.

Pepper White is a classic Mini color, I took mine to a ralley last year and parked next to a 1969 Pepper White Mini and the color match was almost exact. It is creamy enough that it cannot be mistaken for snow white and is very "rich" looking in person. I added tint to the windows and feel that it is a real distinictive look !
