Pure Silver with black or silver top? help!

[blue hoodie]

hi everyone, first time poster and potential buyer for a new mini. I wanted everyone's opinion about the pure silver mini's and how they look in real life (didn't get a chance to see a silver one at the dealership i went to). I'm unsure whether to get a black or silver top for a pure silver mini and was wondering which color top do you guys think looks better with the pure silver. thanks!

With the black roof, definitely. The all-silver looks really bland in my opinion. If all silver, it would need some nice aftermarket wheels to stand out.

I would say black top and mirrors too.... goes nice with black bonnet stripes if you decide to get them later.

Both options look good, the black roof just looks better due to the dark pillars. Pure Silver/Black is getting to be popular here in Perth.
It is almost as good as all black.

DO NOT GET A PURE SILVER ! Check The paint job very carefully before you accept the car if you do!!!

Hey all......

Check my photos for a Cooper in Pure Silver/Black/16" Wheels. I have the glass sunroof and a black window tint and I reckon It looks great The sunroof blends in with the Black roof and with the dark tint I think it looks classy.

I have to add that it is a 2002 car and the paintwork is faultless.........

Check out my gallery to see shots of my Silver and black Cooper. I do admit though, that all silver S that COOPERation posted looks pretty nice, I think it's the sunroof that makes it right.

All silver! W/ black viper stripes! ('Course I'm biased, having an all-Dark Silver.)

I'm wondering if the black roof is murder in the summer?

OK, so what's this issue with the paint on Pure Silver cars? I'm heading into the dealer next week for a paint issue on the black roof, there appears to be paint missing from the rear, right around where the hinges are. However the silver looks fine to me.
