Question Current MCS color options...?

Hey Folks,

I'm currently debating on what color combination I'd be most happy with and I've run into a small snag that I'd like some clarification on...

According to the Mini adviser I spoke to today, Mini is not building any more MCSs that are either Astro Black, or Jet Black. Is this true?

Have any of you recently (as in the past month or so) ordered an MCS that was either Jet Black or Astro Black?

I'd really appreciate your insight!

Thanks!

-- Armen

Jet (Solid) Black hasn't been available for over a year.

Astro Black shows up on the MINI USA configurator but it's possible it might not be available because they are winding down production for the 2006 model year.

That's what I noticed as well, when I was building my MCS on the website. I'll double check with my Mini Adviser next week. Thanks!
