Same colors here - - Indi Blue/Indi Blue. Only seen one other in the area and a few here and there on the net. Some people say it ain't a real Mini unless it has a different color roof. But this ain't no Mini - it's a new car, a MINI.
Greatbear and I have the same colors on our MINI's. (DS/DS) When I decided on the colors, I wanted the roof to be the body car simply because I felt the car was distintive enough... but now I've gotten more used to the MINI and I really like white and the black roofs too!
:smile: My first MINI, a Cooper, was Pure Silver/Pure Silver. Traded her in for Wanda who is Jet Black/Jet Black, to which I added a Union Jack sunroof flag!
I'm Jet Black with a white roof and b/w checkered sunroof cover with the big red "S". When I first got the car I was tempted to have the roof sprayed silver, and that's still a possibility. Wished MINI offered a silver roof, then you add R90's and chrome or checkered mirror covers........................mgg
Chili Red with Black roof here, and a sun roof. We are adding a Union Jack to the sun roof sometime this year. I rarely see another MINI with the same color combo as ours. Most Chili Red's I see have a white roof.
The gold and silver MINI's look great in one color!
Molly is all Indie Blue. I had orginally ordered IB/W, but that car never made it onto the boat. My dealer gave me a call and said that "something" fell on it and crushed it flat. This car was already in production for thier stock. I grabbed it and have loved every moment with her!!
How many peolpe have ordered a MINI with a body colored roof
I have not seen very many of them, either black or white roofs. :smile:

In my area there are some all body colored MINIs. Some with even body colored painted side skirts and wheel arches too.
One of the comments about doing an all one color scheme is that most cars are one color and since the MINI does so well with a contrasting roof, side mirrors and stripes, then why not do it the "MINI way".
Imagine your Camry or Taurus with white or black roof and mirrors? Yuk.
White roofs lighten the look while black roofs are more aggressive. Both can be sporty. Body colored roofs offer a stronger emphasis on the color but can be contrasted with chrome.
