Secondly can't a gay man have a yellow car?

I think she was just hoping the said gay guy would have one of a different color than hers.

Steph, we all knew in the back of our minds that the MINI was only going to be more popular over time so the idea of an exclusive color was going to be shortlived. It sounds like you did the right thing and customized it so it can stand out a little more. I've started that process as I have a red one and it shouldn't be long until we see another one around town. (We added clear side marker lenses and Philips silvervision bulbs in them). We did a silly thing and added the decal "Actual Size" to the side rear window too. We are planning on adding white rear taillights when they are available for the '05. We'll continue to add things to strive to make it different from the rest for as long as we can.

Good luck!
