Are they the same?

 

No, not at all. EB is a very bright light blue. Cool Blue is a more muted, softer light blue. Check the MINIUSA configurator.

 

Cool Blue is ONLY for the Conv. Electric Blue - I think replaces the esisting blue -

MD STREGA2

 

electric blue is the bright light blue that's only for the mcs.
cool blue is the new light blue that's only for the mcsc.
hyper blue is the new middle blue that replaces the old blue available for all minis.

 

Then what is this? My wife want electric blue, but she want automatic, so this is really close to electric blue...darn close!:smile:

 

That is Electric Blue......but wait, its on a Cooper!!! I didn't think that color was available on Coopers in the US.

 

Should avilable anywhere, because they built them all in UK.

 

I agree......hence my agony. I'd love to have an EB Cooper!

 

So sorry for the huge-ness

You are right, but do we get Electric Blue Cooper next year?

 

I love this EB Mini...

 

Dang, that one's awesome. Even though I LOVE my LY/LY cooper, I've always loved the EB MINI's, especially when they have a good window tint all around. Nice!

 

Electric Blue Coopers are not sold in the U.S. but they are currently available in Europe.

I think MINIUSA decided not to make EB available in the good ole' USA market to avoid "upsetting" EB MCS owners with their "exclusive" color scheme.

Other than that, I see no reason why EB is not available in the US spec Cooper.

 

actually cool blue is ver different from electric blue, as stated, cool blue is not as bright as the electric blue.

i actually owuld think that cool blue and hyper blue are a lot closer to one another than electric blue is.

and lastly, electric blue and hyper blue is only available on the cooper s hardtop, and cool blue is only available on the convertiable models, both the S and non S models.

hope this helps

 

eb is availiable to the cooper owners in canada

and believe me lots of eb mcs owners feel quite betrayed

 

Well then I can go buy EB Cooper from Canada and drive back to US then..

 

While there is no technical reason to not allow Electric blue for an MC in the US, it isn't available- just as there is no Dark Silver color option for the MC.

However, if the rest of the world has something as simple as a color then so can the US if there is enough demand for it. So express your desires to MINIUSA.

They will probably add EB for the MC before they add hot metallic pink.

Hey today I saw a white Miata with dual wide pink hood stripes and matching pink wheels. It looked like Barbie's car on drugs.


The miata looked only slightly better than this halloween special.
