The following color options are free:

Pepper White
Chili Red
Mellow Yellow
Oxygen Blue (Cooper only)

Maybe that will influence your decision as it did mine! Have fun.

Good choice on Pepper White! I was extremely torn between PW and CR, and here's why:





^^Not my car, for clarification.

I was always a BRG fan.. thats what I was convinced I was going to buy..
And then I noticed DS..

I wanted the BRG, but the combination that I wanted to make it look the way that I wanted, was to option some extra's.. more $$$..

Also - in Canada, the only way to get the Anthracite is to get the Sport Package.. and I didn't like the BRG with the Tuscan Leather and Anthracite..

Long story short - see my spec below..

PW or DS

The PW/B with the Aero Kit looks darn good. If I had seen that before I ordered, I may not be driving my DS/W Scooter. (Sorry Scooter...)

I do believe my choices would be DS with anyroof, PW/W or PW/B or BRG as the colors of choice for the classic look in MINIs.

Sparkling Silver

If Pepper White went well with my fetish for checkers that would've been what I ordered. Its such a deep, unique color in person, I love it!

I am ordering Dark Silver Myself with black roof, but I got to say of the non metallic paints, I kind of like Pepper White, it really looks awesome in the above picture with the JCW aero kit.

A MINI can be any color you want, as long as its Pepper White with Black Roof.

Look I am so sick of you people trying to talk other colors. There is no other color. My CR can kick your non-CR's azz any day of the week Don't make my CR MINI come after your MINI.
