Will the real Venom please stand up?
Hello All,
I just picked my MCS up Tuesday evening. Don't have decent pictures yet, but I snapped these with my phone while my buddy and I were out picking up some Fantasy Football magazines for our upcoming season. Man, was this car worth the wait!

The MCS is a must have, but what's with the Black color with the black roof and the black interior.
With all of that black, it looks like a regular Cooper. You need to splash some contrasting color in there to show off the bonnet intake!

All the comments I get are of the "I've never seen one like that" variety. Where do you get off critiquing my car?
You splash yours however you like, and I'll stick to what I want. Thank you very much!
C'mon be honest out there!
No offense, I'm just being honest on how the car comes off. There are too many patronizing posters in this group.
I blame your MA - they should have explained there are more colors than black. I get that you're from Texas and that you couldn't splash some color on your car or the hillbillies would bust your stones and question your manhood.
I'm just saying that MINI's are fun cars that are offered in funky colors and options not offered by the Detroit and Japanese Automakers. Embrace it! That's the point of buying a MINI - you're buying a product that is inherently unique. To downplay the uniqueness is beyond me.
Buying a MINI and going all black is like owning a bulldog and dressing it up in a leather jacket with a leather cap and a spiky collar too macho it up. You got a bulldog, embrace it and throw a flag on the roof or something.

Look out Spidey!
UC --- Venom ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for him to arrive to see the actual pics....soooo sweet!
Best of luck to you!
To Franinpa: Relax! It's all MINI in the end! Your point is valid, but everyones taste is different. UC did choose his own color scheme, for HIS car, a cool monochromatic look accented by chrome. Will everyone love it? No, but does HE love it? Of course, and really that's all that matters......
That's the beauty of MINI customizing!

Thanks, and don't worry. If I do anything at all, I may buy the chrome hood scoop. I debated over ordering it when I built my car online, but since it's a dealer-installed item, I figured that was one less thing factored into my monthly payment. I wanted the driving lights too, same scenario. I like it like it is, so I may stand pat. We'll see.
i sense a fight brewing up here.
That being said, congrats on your new Mini
. I really like the color combo of your mini - it looks really nice.
