R50/53 Voted off the Island
The MINI is a pugnacious “in your face” sort of car! IMO all of the current colors look good, but some of them also send a message.
Chili Red/White and Liquid Yellow/White both say, “I may be small, but watch me go!”
Dark Silver/Dark Silver and Dark Silver/Black say, “I may be small, but I’ve got class!”
British Racing Green/White says, “I may be small, but I’ve got a heritage!”
I wouldn’t want to see any of these colors get voted off the island!

>>I would like to see an all chrome MINI. That would stop tailgaters as it would blind them.
Yeah!! And put a big 17 on the door and have good ol' DW drive it!

IB and PS are a bit dull, but the IB w/ white roof and wheels (maybe white bonnet stripes) for contrast looks great. I've got a PS/B MC- didn't want to stand out too much- but now a year later I'm waiting for my CR/W MCS w/ white alloys, obviously not wanting subtlety at this point. I'd add a rich metallic royal blue, something between IB and EB, again w/ white everything, although lots of chrome would have much the same effect.
>>I got it - I'll strip off my crappy soft '04 paint and just put some real clear-coat over bare metal! Industrial looking and effectively protected 
Kind of a DeLorean look, huh? hehehe
As much as I love my CR/W MC, I'd have to vote off Chili Red and replace it with something closer to a candy/metallic/pearl red, and a couple shades darker to boot.
And I'd 86 the Solid Gold. I saw one. Once. That was enough for me. Perhaps replace it with a similar precious metal color like Copper or Bronze, with a pearlcoat to add depth.
C'mon, think about it...a Copper Cooper!
