PW/B with a 30 or 35% tint all around looks awesome.

THAT'S IT!!!! Wow, I'm amazed no one has ever suggested this before. This could be a whole new solution to the problem of color-agonizing. Simply brilliant!!

PW/B or CR/B

Speaking from one who has both:
If you're not getting the aero kit, black is the best choice for a top. I ordered mine first CR/B with black boot/bonnet stripes. Looks great. Have to admit that after my wifes' PW/B came in I was jealous. PW/B is sweet....Can't go wrong with either.

decisions

Mini looks great in every color! I had the most difficult time deciding which one to order. Then once the order went in I changed it - twice! My son wanted the CR/B, and my wife likes the LY. I went with solid PW because I wanted it to be a understated. She's arriving this week!

Whatever happened to the light green color? Was it not selling?

I also love the Cool Blue...if it had been available on the MCS, I'f have ordered that.

Both are great combos. We have CRB. LYB is awesome too!

I hardly ever see CRB's on the road around here, mostly CRW in the Sacramento area.

It's a tough choice. I'm trying not to be selective based on what I bought.

I really liked the PW after I saw a few on the street. Looks very low key, and stylish. I went with the Chili Red because I couldn't bring myself to pay $400 for a color. (Just on principle)

With any color you choose, I recommend the color keyed top to match the body. I absolutely love the color matching tops (hence my Red on Red Mini).

Sorry to turn Pepper White lovers, I have gone with the CR/B combination.
I was very tempted with PW/B at the dealer but .

I just looked away and BAM!
