My husband and I took a ride to the dealer today and my MINI had just arrived! I know a lot of people are curious about the oxygen blue, so here are some pictures. I think it's beautiful and I'm very happy I went with this color. I'm picking it up Monday and I can't wait!:nod:

Edited to add that it was raining and overcast, so I can't wait to see it in the sun.

Looks similar to Laguna Seca blue on the E46 M3.

Very lively; it reminds me too of the Laguna Seca Blue on the E46 //M3! Thank you very much for posting pictures of your MINI!

Yep, just as I thought. I still love it. :)

Congrats!

Congrats ... wonderful color

Thanks for the pics! On the first pic, it looks almost like a non-metallic R53 Electric Blue or R56 LB (which I think is the car in the background). Is that impression correct?

Looks great, enjoy the ride!!

You're right about the car in the background being a laser blue. To me, the laser blue was brighter than the oxygen blue (which could be the metallic paint). It was also darker. Both very nice colors.:thumbsup:

Thank you all for your good wishes!

Congrats on your new MINI! :thumbsup:

What a fab colour, Oxy-Blue really stands out! :nod:

I wonder if MINI will ever offer Oxy-Blue for the MCS? :confused:

Guess I will just have to wait till '08 and see.:impatient

COGRATS ON THE MINI
IT'S PRETTY COLOR
REFRESHING

That's a more pastel shade of blue than is shown on MiniUSA's website.

I guess yours has to be the real Oxy-Blue, but I was kind of partial to the one shown on the website, which is more teal-ish. Time to reevaluate, I guess...
