Pink MCS

I recently saw this in London. I don't think I've seen another pink 2nd gen MINI yet. It was a nice paint job!

That is one hot pink car. Wonder if the owner named it Pink Panther.

Love it! I recently saw one in Hawaii so I know there are a few around. Saw one in San Diego several months back also.

I've also see 2 new VW Bugs the same color - one driving and the other one sitting at the dealership. Wonder if it is a new color for VW?

they were april fools joke but it keeps propagating and now people believe it's new for 09.

now orange.. nothing wrong with orange. If I had a choice of getting Orange on my MCS I would have chosen Orange.

Yellow Orange Light (sky) blue are my favorite colors in that order.

For some reason re-sprays seem much more commonplace over in the UK...apparently some shops specialize in this (and have for many years). I wish we saw more of that here.

Would be neat to have for awhile, but reselling it would suck.
