Well i should be getting the call in a couple of days, since my mcs is supposed to arrive in february. I am trying to decide on roof color if i get the aero kit w/fenders painted. Chili red with black roof i dont like, but if the fenders are painted red with aero kit then it looks great, whereas white roof same setup looks just pretty good. Then today i saw a pic on member mini's with all red setup and i was thinking how good would it look with aero kit and fenders painted but i have never seen it. A month ago i was satisfied with chili red/white,with bonnet stripes. I think too much, what do u guys think :???:

 

Choose whatever, you'll be happy with it no matter what. I love mine but it doesn't stop me from still liking other MINIs. I would have to buy 3 or 4 to get all the color options I wanted.

 

Hey Ryan, for what it's worth, I've got the Chili Red/White set up (black fenders, no aero kit) and I wouldn't trade it for anything, except just maybe Indi Blue/White. I think the red/white really brings out the fun aspect of the car in a way that the darker colors, or the silvers/greys/blacks just can't. Don't get me wrong, they all look good, but the red fits the car perfectly and it's just such a great classic sports car color. I almost switched to red/black, and I'm thankful every day that I didn't (actually I have the Boston dealership's bizarre business practices to thank!). Good luck making your choice!

 

Also the red/white is not nearly as common as I had originally feared. I actually have yet to see another one, and I've seen at least 25 different ones in Boston so far!

Well, I held a meet in Florida and out 15 cars several were Red White. Look in the Southeast Regional gallery, page 8 image 67 to see what I mean. But any color will be fine.

Hmm, that reminds me, I think there were a couple at the Peabody dealership's barbecue thing a couple of weeks ago. In the city, though, I've only seen pure silver, dark silver, yellow, electric blue, and velvet red, plus one chili red/black. Maybe I'm just always looking the other way when they go by...

Anyway my main point was that I think the red/white color combo brings out the best in this car.

minimotorin is right, you'll not be disappointed regardless of what you go with! Well, enough of me babbling all over this thread...
