R56 British Racing Green or Lighting Blue
It really comes down to what you want, it's your mini, I think it's a reflection of us, our mini's, and no matter what you get, I'm sure you'll be happy *** a pig in sh#% with it, happy future motoring to all !!
I chose the BRG w/black roof and the redwood lounge leather interior -- was a bit concerned about the interior, but it looks 'hot' ... glad I chose what I did. I made about 14 different configs before I finally settled. Whatever your choose, you'll be totally in love with it. Cheers!!
Lightning Blue = Sporty, Flashy
BRG = Classic, stylish, original
A MINI in any color is still a MINI!! All Fun!!
I was between these 2 colors, as well as Pepper White and Dark Silver. To me the Blue just stood out more than the rest, so thats what I picked. I also went with the Black roof/mirrors because I plan to black it out eventually
. Also, You could be different and black out a BRG MINI. Don't think I've seen one of those yet although I'm sure its out there.
Bottom Line = Make it your OWN choice!!

There were some photos of BRG with Redwood leather posted sometime ago. I thought it looked quite good.
I like the lighting blue/w white top more mostly because blue is my favorite color, but both appear too dark for me. I went with the lighter color blue of Laser Blue. And since it was lighter I went with the more contrasting black top and black bonnet stripes. I also noticed that the Cooper S brochure primarily featured two colors as they attempted to sell the car to prospective buyers skimming those pages, namely the chili red and the laser blue.
I was originally thinking of LB, but I didn't want to be confused with a Colts fan. They had a BRG model in the showroom and that sold me...I don't look at the metallic as a drawback at all, regardless of tradition.
