Give the people what they want... a REAL buffet of colors to choose from.

Well I would rather have Liquid Yellow than Mellow Yellow. Might as well have Mountain Dew Green too.
I like the high visibility of my LY MCC, especially when I share the road with so many large SUVs and Hummers every day. But that light green is really nice. Just saw one today at the dealership for the first time.

MINI should make a partnership with Crayola and offer the entire color spectrum found in the 64 box of crayons. Let me have a red MINI with a yellow roof if that is what I want!

Silk Green was nice...I get a thrill whenever I see one (because I have no life). btw, any fans of Silk Green may be interested in Oxygen Blue (Cooper only) when and if we ever get to see it!!! (reportedly a Teal-ish 
)

I remember seeing one Silk Green with the green factory interior a few years ago.

Love the color combo, prettiest body color and interior in the MINI line. My new MCSC is nice but the old one was prettier.
