The spec above is copied from the spec form sent out to dealers for their launch cars, and i believe all cooper s colours will be available for the customer cars. I guess dealers are given the option of the most popular colours / those best to shoe the car off and sel it? Take a look at mini.com international site: there is a colour configurator now for the car which shaows all colours.

So why the chili pack if it already has decent alloys and aircon?

What was the source of this information? A lot of people have assumed (and been annoyed) that the factory JCW does NOT include aero kit, because it was not stated in press releases.

jon vital · Apr 18th, 2008, 06:50 PM

UK version now has the kit.

Bring back Liquid Yellow!!!

LY & MY would look fantastic together in the range

DPMINI Aaron · Apr 21st, 2008, 07:53 AM

I think some people didnt get the MINI april fools joke about the colour changes !

Paul · Apr 21st, 2008, 10:28 AM

Seeing as I wrote that, I did, but these are actual colours "in the pipeline". A new black (black) metallic, a new Yellow (Interchange Yellow is the name I was given), and a couple of new R55 only colours, sort of orange and blue (metallic).

(According to sources, and so on and so forth....)

Jordan210 · Apr 21st, 2008, 01:40 PM

Iv been told a few times about the new Yellow, From the sources iv ben told its duller then mellow yellow

Paul · Apr 21st, 2008, 01:47 PM

But "Interchange Yellow" sounds cool though.

AprilWhine · Apr 21st, 2008, 02:53 PM

Sort of a mustard maybe? And the new orange and blue for the R55 may be similar to the old hot orange and cool blue?

Paul · Apr 21st, 2008, 03:58 PM

From what I gather you're close on the orange and blue.
