hey everyone, i need your opinions (any are welcome!) on the colour...i've basically narrowed it down to either Indi Blue, or Dark Silver...I really like both, I went to Richmond Mini today and saw a Dark Silver MCS, and I fell in love with it, but the Indi Blue was what I was always going for all along...now i'm torn between the two! please i need your loyal input! it's very much appreciated!

Hi LiddleD

If I were u it would have to be the Dark Silver...especialy on a MCS...with some black contrasting bonnet stripes...depending on the roof colour of course.

Indi Blue.
It was your first choice, so stay with it!
Whatever you choose its going to look cool :-)

LiddleD · Jul 4th, 2003, 09:09 PM

that's what i was thinkin of too...if i were to get dark silver, i MUST have the black stripes, but i was gonna get the black viper stripes, and then hopefully i can get some kinda white outline on them to really define them from the rest of the car...it's all still up in the air...coz if i got the indi blue, i would get silver viper stripes with either a black or white outline as well...hmmm...decisions...

I had a DS MCS and am getting an IB MCS so I really can't help you there

Both are great colours so you won't be disappointed with either

What colour roof for the DS are you considering????

LiddleD · Jul 4th, 2003, 09:20 PM

for both DS and IB...i would get the same colour roof...i'm not too fond of the white or black roofs...although they're nice, i don't think they're for me. the one i saw today at Richmond Mini was all DS...body and roof...and the mirror caps were black i think...it was SO nice...hehe...i think it was also because the only IB one wasn't very nice looking, it was sitting outside and basically stock...

brave1 · Jul 4th, 2003, 10:03 PM

I say IB..but I'm bias cause it's what I ordered..lol I like the white roof contrast, the one I saw was all blue and it looked a little boring, to much like a regular car and not the special Mini it is...the silver I saw was very nice also..and boy the red is sharp..ok I'm not helping huh???lol

ericthecanadian · Jul 5th, 2003, 08:51 AM

To be completely honest... You really can't go wrong with either color

But I think you should always trust your first instinct!

LiddleD · Jul 5th, 2003, 08:58 AM

ok, i think this picture more or less decided for me, Indi Blue was my first choice, and has always been...this just reassured me that i'm making the right choice

thanks y'all for your help!

Go with your gut instinct. Its all personal taste. I would say go with BRG. Soild dark silver is hot, roof and all.

Personally,
the only way to be is in black and white!

Pebbles · Jul 6th, 2003, 03:00 AM

Think about the color you'd regret NOT having. I too was set on Indy Blue until I saw a Chili Red. I couldn't get it out of my brain!

I pictured myself owning the blue and asked myself "would I secretly wish I'd have the red?" and the answer was YES! I'd always think "I should have gotten that red one I saw"

So you ask yourself about regretting NOT having the Indy Blue or NOT having the Dark Silver!

You'll get your answer.

The answer is inside of you!!!
