My dealer is taunting me. He just sent me this pic of another Laguna Green MINI that came in. Mine, of course, still hasn't started production

Are those wheels white? If so, that is baller status. If you had a white roof I would probably get so excited I would pee myself. LOLz j/k! I want to see this color in person I just feel that the photos are not doing it justice.

Mt. Laurel Mini had a sale on one over the weekend. Pretty good deal, almost $2K off. Nice color.

The wheels are not white, just your standard Web Spokes. They were listed on the sticker as no-charge so I got them as a free option. Plus $2k off from MINI/dealer.

The picture does not do this color justice. It is amazing in person!!

I really love it. I tend to love colors like this anyway where my Mini loving friend is black only. Looks awesome!

They look white. Well at least to me. Might just be the lighting.

+2! It looks so different in every picture. I was hoping to see one last time I was at the dealer but no luck.

HomerJ yours looks slick!

Where are you getting the $2k off for new Mini's? Is it with the Motor-tober special? Or this an extra discount? I'm looking to order a 2012 Mini within the next week or so, I want all the discounts I can get since my car will be a hair over $30k with destination fee.

I ordered my laguna green convertible on 10/16 and it started production on 10/24. I went off picture on internet so I hope I like her when she gets here.

I'm getting the $750 voucher for motor-tober this weekend. I'm hoping to get at least another $1000 off. That'd make my sunroofs and HK system free. :-D I heard that ordering a car may get you better deals, because it's a guarenteed sale...vs the dealer having cars to maintain while they sit on their lot.

I don't post here much but I thought since they are ending production on the color that I should share mine, especially since I don't see many white roofs here. Amusingly I traded my old solar red for it.

The night I picked it up.


And her first auto-x a week later.

There shouldn't be too many Laguna Greens out there. Mini is discontinuing the color in January.

Congrats! Great looking car! It's crazy how much different the color looks in different light.
