Not surprised - MINI probably wants to make room for another blue or another silver!

I knew going in that LG was only supposed to be a 6-month run. That only made it more appealing as far as I'm concerned. I like sticking out like a sore thumb.

Honestly my biggest worry is touch-ups and paint matching that could possibly be needed in the future. I'm getting a clear bra for that reason alone.

I am fine with them phasing out laguna green. Just like you... I want to have something different. I also got the Soda leather seats, so I think there will be very few cars that look like mine. YAY! My current mini is a sparkling silver justa, so I am really in the market for something with a little more Oomph!!

$1k color option doesn't help it like the current purple.
