ZACTLY ! I hope MINI wakes up some day and gives us back that true Black color. After all, I'm going to need to replace a MINI one of these years.

I'll give Indi Blue a runner up vote and that Hyper Blue was also HOT !

I second that. I would have bought Indi Blue in a heartbeat, were it available.

Others I would have seriously considered are: VR, NFR, and HC... none of which were available on the 2007 MCS.

You know I had my favorites when I bought my car...but now that I've seen some other NAM setups with various colors...I like some colors that I didn't like before. I'm talking about PW and AB...those two have really grown on me.

But in reality...DS is my favorite...because the FASTEST MINIs are the ones in DS. I mean doesn't everyone know this











DS FTW!

I'm with the OP. Velvet Red for sure with Solar Red a close second.

If pressed, I suppose I'd have to say that my all-time favorite color was Electric Blue. Right now, however, I'm quite smitten it's non-metallic and even more classic cousin, Oxygen Blue.

I was just at the Oxford plant and they say that Laser Blue and Mellow Yellow are selling well and might be discontinued.

Don't bring any colors back. This keeps the cars more unique for the folks that have those colors. And I hope they DO discontinue Mellow Yellow. Makes mine more special if I don't see them on the road.

If you really like a color, repaint your car or buy an older model.
