Why is the E blue in that so deep? Just the lighting? It really bugs me cause I think it looks much cooler than either the electric blue or indi blue (in REAL light).

Gotta be the lighting that is changing the colors slightly. When I took pictures of my Electric Blue Cooper S, I actually was suprised to see how it looked. You can see the pictures on my web site linked in my signature.

Yup, proably the lighting - photos under artificial light can do strange things to colors - especially under fluorescent bulbs. Also carnellm's pics make the EB look darker. It is tough to judge color on a screen.

That pic was taken at the Detroit auto show. There was a pink tone to the spot lights.

Check this pic.
