New Highclass Gray Mini

I finally found it...Thought that someone would have started an "Official" forum for this fantastic color.

Now let's get it rolling (every pun intended)

"Smokey" joined "Blue" in the garage on 10/13/11 and is now past the break-in period. Options and mods are in my signature. The stripe is burgundy with metalic pin stripes.
And the all important PICTURES:

The custom stripes make for an awesome color combo!! I'm so jealous, I am desperately wanting a Highclass Gray MINI :0

LILY - thanks.

I had a great shop to work with and they had a lot of samples. They also helped with the width and spacing. The Highclass gray has a little purple to it so it is tough to match.

It is a great color

I think what I love the most is the slight purple tint. I adored the Purple Haze Metallic color & this new Gray excites me! Definitely a good choice!

I thought about naming my car "Hendrix"

But Smokey is more subtle than that

Here's one that's currently sitting on the showroom floor at MINI of Fairfield County. Pictures really don't do the color justice and I really liked it.

Welcome to the "club"

I like the chrome mirror covers. And is there extra chrome in the front?

Options? And you need to do your signature.

Sweet
Welcome to the club. From what I can tell this was a very short lived color. The last time I looked they are know longer offering it. So there could be. Very few of us.
