Not Happy with the colour

[AMUSE COOPER S]

action: Told my girlfriend that i liked the EB colour for the mini

reaction: Thats a girly colour

reaction to that reaction: yeah, i know...... alot of the girls love it

reaction to my last action:

looks like it will be back to the DS for me

Why do women have that power? Is it the Jedi force?

Dude, you've only just scratched the surface.

Anyway, I highly recommend you get the colour YOU want.

EB is not 'girly'.
It's a color. And a right smart one at that!

Don't forget, you can always change the girlfriend.

Who is the post power full person on Earth? It's not man but women. Think about it, countries have been formed and destroyed, brother against brother, father against son, Peace and war, Men were made rich and other men made poor, all because of the power of a women.

We're not Jedis.... although I wish I had a light sabre and cool Princess Leia hair coils...

Love EB - I'd have had it if my friend Lucy hadn't got there first! it's a winner!

DS nice too but EB is the most beautiful....

Surely the compromise is to go for Hyper Blue? I think it's a lively as EB but less gender-specific...

I agree with addman. EB is my favourite colour, 2nd favourite has to be Hyper Blue. Hyper Blue would be a good compromise.

EB is definately not a girly colour though - infact I don't think i've ever seen a girl driving an EB Mini for that matter

Get the colour YOU want I bet the girlfriend will love it when she sees it in the metal.

Cheers, LB

Get EB! I'm definitly a guy, and I have never been told that my car looks girly!
If you love it, don't let anyone get in your way, they'll grow to it!

You must to choise your girlfriend or your MINI... your MINI!!!!!

I had the choice with our previous MCS (Chilli Red) so when it came round to the 2004 model it was either red again, Dark Silver or Electric Blue. GF always wanted EB originally and I really like the colour, GF says it seems to attract alot more attention purely due to the brighter/louder colour, I certainly dont regret it. Most people upon hearing I have a MCS (that dont have a Mini themselves) usually say (before I tell them what colour it is) that they love the MCS in EB and that if they had one this is the colour they'd get it in if they had one and thats from Males and Females.

Anyway since when has a 135mph high insurance group car with a supercharger etc etc etc been associated with being girly? no matter what colour it is ok pink not inc.

Masarati 3200GT can be bought in Yellow as can a Porsche Boxter, Ferrari, Orange Lamborghini Diablo, yellow Audi RS4, Yellow/Orange Lotus Elise all bright eye catching colours, that could possibly be percieved as being girly, say on a clio or something

Now if it was a Ford Street Ka or a Citroen Pluriel or something I could understand - these cars tend to carry a stereotypical image, your not that likely to catch a red hot blooded male driving a pink Streetka now are you.

hence why women are evil and should be banished forever.

If you drive the car and you pay for it you pick the colour simple. I know two guys that drive EB and I don't think there girly, actually two of the best drivers I know

Cheers & good luck
