Well I have a good offer for my Cobra and if all goes as planned I will be replacing it with another MCS. My favorite color is green so logic dictates I should get the British Racing Green. As there are a wide variety of optional choices I would like to see what others have chosen. Here is a great opportunity for all those BRG owners to post up.
As BlindLemonLars posted, you really have to see the BRG in person. No digital photo I have seen really does justice to the color. Some look nice, but that is probably because I have a BRG/W MCSa and I know what the color looks like.
See it in person at a dealer, as it's kind of a hard color to capture in photos. The first thing you'll notice is that it's NOTHING like the color displayed in the MINI configurator website. Here's a shot of mine, the day I got it.
None of the colors in the Mini Configurator look like they do in person. I'll be ordering through a broker and probably not the dealer but I will heed your advice and visit the dealer for close inspection.

With MINI's still selling at MSRP and almost never a discount, you might not get much out of using a broker like you would with almost any other car.

Says he can come in just under MSRP. I'm still a little ways off from purchasing another one but trying to keep my options open. Also, haven't been in to see the local dealer yet.
Here's a couple o pics of my baby: the first pic with the roof graphic is the most recent. The pic without the roof graphic was taken one month after I first picked up the car from the dealer.
