I would like to see a Pure White as opposed to the Pepper White. Pure White/Pure White roof would look nice with the contrasting black bits about the car. The Pepper White is good, just too "creamy". Cheers.

BMW Daytona Violet. Was available on early E36 M3's and special order on a few other models (like the 850). Very nice shade of purple.

A true, non-metallic BRG would be nice. I have nothing against the current green, but it's not BRG.

Although it's been noted there was never an "official" shade of BRG...

Sorry, can't help ya there, mine always come out small, too.

I LOVE my IB.

But that being said, I love the old Island Blue, non-metallic Minis. Although, the laser blue is similar that's coming out it looks like!

Just PLEASE MINI, NO MORE SHADES OF GREY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice looking Indi Blue MINI....I LOVE IB also. At first I REALLY wanted Hyper Blue, but couldn't afford it (since they were 05'+) and "settled" for Indi Blue, but now I REALLY love the color! It's amazing.

Large pictures are hosted elsewhere and linked to your post. Example:



Right-click/properties on the above image and you'll see the site where I snagged it from. (it's a Daytona Violet '95 M3, btw ).

You can also upload pictures to your personal gallery on NAM.

I think Virgina Tech's Chicago Maroon would be a great color, with a black roof maybe silver, it hurts me very much to say that though since they beat my Clemson tigers last night

You repainted yor car? Mini doesn't offer a BRG. BRG is non-metallic, and not as yellow.

My Vote(s)

How about the Interlagos Blue special to the M3 CSL as seen here:



Also, how about an assortment of pearl colors (especially white), bring back Electric Blue & another vote for a true BRG.

anyone remember Velvet Red from the 2002 MINIs? i would have gotten my MCS in that color if i could've. with a black or white top would look great. good call on the Daytona Violet i used to love that color on the E36 M3. only real purple i ever liked. how about the old orangish-red that the first M3s came in like the old M1 would look HOT wtih black roof. real BRG like on my Mom's Jag XJ6 would be good too.

How about a special Black and Tan version? The lower part could be a very dark, very rich brown and the top an off white. Might sell well in Ireland.
