In what sense is samtrack my leader? (especially as it's declared by a PS owner.) I've seen his car a lot on NAM, so why is it the leader--by virtue of exposure, or tenure? There's not doubt "personalizing" your MINI is part of the attraction of owning, and uniqueness is but an option or after-market bling-thing away, but the very process seems to argue against comparisons, or ranking of cars from best to worst. My vote goes, of course, to my car...
Dont mess with an S.

I will 3rd/4th/whatever number we're at now, that Samtrak's car looks amazingly sweet. Probably the nicest looking DS/DS I've looked at. My '06, which I'll hopefully have by the end of this month (November), will be DS/Silver.
For some reasons, I'd like the DS/DS. I like the fact that you don't know it's a MINI when looking at it from a decent distance. But with the two-toned look, you know it's a MINI from a greater distance. I don't feel the need to stand out, and I like being able to blend in with the crowd a bit more than some I suppose. Not that that'll be an easy task in any MINI though really =)

I like the mini dark siver, but bmw "silver grey" or porsche "seal grey" are perfect. They look good in all light, where sometimes dark silver has a yellow or green tint to it.

Just kidding
Honestly I think all the colors look good! Here is our current collection.
If I had it to do over again I think I'd have gone with EB/W or PW/B. Something about those colors with the aerokit just does it for me!
At least I got the correct roof color on my DS
P.S. Thanks for the poke there UJ
