Hi I'm new here

One of the things I like about MINI are some of the colors they use. I'm really liking that Spiced Orange. I found some other pics of it, I'm not too sure about that Ice Blue. I wish they would bring back the Lightning Blue, but my fave is still the Chili Red.

Here are some hi-res pics I found of the Spiced Orange

ho-ho, hadn't seen these! You sir are proving yourself to be a valuable member already.

 

Ice blue is such an amazing color. Wish I could "retrofit" that :lol:

 

Couldn't agree more. As soon as I saw the pictures of the R57 from MINI a couple weeks ago (or so), I knew that I was going to really like it.

It's disappointing that it's not available on the Hardtop, IMO. Even though I'm not planning on buying another new MINI anytime really soon, if I ever look at used '11-'12s down the road, there won't be any in Ice Blue.

Maybe it'll make it onto the Coopster or the 3rd Gen.

 

So is Chili Red gone? :frown2:

 

Makes me appreciate my mellow yellow even more. Hard to really form an opinion without seeing them in person though.

 

I thought I read somewhere that Ice Blue was going to be available on the hardtop. Guess I was reading too fast, lol:mad2:

 

So what colors are going away. I'd imagine Oxygen blue, I've heard that isn't a big seller. What about Nightfire red? Sure wish they'd put that on a Clubman S along with Mellow Yellow.

 

White Roof Radio is live right now, and they just confirmed again that Ice Blue is not available on the R56, unfortunately.

Oxygen Blue has been gone since March. NFR is out, too.

They have really shaken up the colour wheel at MINI...I really LIKE the Spice Orange, and the they have that new BRG which I think will look absolutely fantastic in person...
