When it came time to order my MCS it was either IB/w or BRG/w. When it came time to order I went with the Indi Blue/w with bonnet stripes......but I ended up with BRG/w with bonnet stripes. Basically I found out that the dealer got a custom ordered car in that the guy couldn't get for the same price as mine.....similar spec but instead of the MFSW stand alone option this one had a sunroof as a stand alone option, but it didn't yet have the post-January build price increase. So I got a sunroof for the same price as a MFSW!

I went with my gut and ordered the blue because I leaned a little towards gt6's opinion that the BRG on the MINI isn't real BRG, but now that I have the car in that color I absolutely love it, I think the combo looks great and you just don't see hardly any BRG MCS' in my neck of the woods, so it's unique.

So long story short....go with your gut, you'll be extremely happy either way....and BTW I too had doubts about these colors with black, but I have seen some now and they do look fantastic with black roofs also.
