Most liked posts in thread: "Interstate Yellow" MINI !?!?

I really like that color. Just doesn't look very good on a hardtop

 

I think it's "Interchange Yellow" ?

If that's what you're talking about... I think it's hideous. Yechhh.

 

I think it looks "ok"... until you put liquid or mellow yellow beside it, then you can see how 'greenish' it really is.

 

Yeah.......

NOT one of my faves either, and I first saw it on a convertible with a dark blue top.

It's eyecatching, that's for sure.....:blush2:

 

well, if you've spent much time changing diapers

you KNOW what that color reminds you of..... But some like it, more power to them. We won't be trying to buy the same car though.....

The first time I saw that color I thought it's the color of urine. If you have kidney stones.

 

Yup:lol:

The kids 07 MCS was Mellow Yellow. We repainted in a year or so ago with the Honda Indy yellow pearl with some extra pearl in the clear. It looks pretty nice. Interchange yellow however........not my favorite by a large margin. Thosu some like it, it ain't my cup of pee, uh I mean tea.

 

My brother sent me a phone pic of an interchange yellow cabrio the other day with the caption "You should paint yours this color, lol"

I wrote back and said "Thats interchange yellow"

I got "They actually offer that from the factory!!??" lol

He just thought someone decided to mess up a good color :lol:

 

Well....... I don't think it's a bad color. It is unique, and in my opinion, this specimen looks very nice with the black trim and all.

In 20 or so years, I can see it all now......

For sale, extremely rare factory color... highly sought after... commanding exceedingly high resale prices... only for the MINI connoisseur who wants a one of a kind MINI. Last sold at auction for $175,000.00 USD. Let the bidding begin.

 

Story on extremely rare...

the 65 Mustang was available with a factory front bench seat. Totally lame and not that good, as the car had a floor moutned shifter, but you COULD get it.

Fast forward 45 years. Those that mine the production figures find that there are about 200 v8 mustangs with the factory bench seat. Does that mean they are worth more?

Rare is NOT equal to valuable....

Makes me wonder how many BRG/S Factory JCW's were produced in '06.

 

Oh..........
And unlike those crappy worthless Mustangs with the shifter and the bench seat, this fine specimen has buckets up front like a true sports car!

 

Yeah, but bench seats were so much more useful for intimate relations at highway speeds.

 

Well now, it's not fair of us to criticize, there may be some I-Yellow owners here on our board and I doubt they'd appreciate our criticque of their taste....

I once sold a new Porsche 944 Turbo to a slightly older gentlemen, a few months later I saw him in the service area and I asked him how he was enjoying his Burgundy Porsche.....

Burgundy? .....he said.

My car's green!

Guess, what? Porsche never made a dark green 944 Turbo - or any green 944's - at least for the States. The man was color blind and I'm guessing he didn't know it!

The point of course, is that what appears to be piss green/yellow to us could look completely different and very appealing to someone else.....

 

+1

 

lol

 

Bucket seats work........

Isn't that the same color our planes had for primer during WWII?
