Agreed DB about this being as close as we are to see true BRG.

Overall I think the car looks good, I would actually purchase a Mini in that color with a white roof, something I would never do with the current metallic BRG.

The color's very nice. If they added this color, it would be the color of my next MINI. But that'll be a while.

And one nice thing about black rims -- they hide brake dust.

What is the likeyhood of having this color replace the metallic BRG come 2010? That would be a great question for the folks at Mini United.

I forgot to change it at the top of the post. the actual name of this MINI is MINI JCW World Championship 50. As for the color, it is non-metallic green, very similar to flat brg of days past. Sure there is a clear coat, but since it's not metallic, it's about the closest we will get to a truly flat brg.

We've heard that getting this to the states, while improbable, is not entirely out of the question. That being said, I wouldn't count on it.

I don’t see any F1 badging. Am I blind?

Bi-xenon lights? Are these different fron the current upgraded lights? If so can we expect the new lights for 2010 ......all this info raises more questions.

I would just love this color to come stateside , i dont care for $5K worth of carbon fiber bling on the car!

I have to agree re the suspension. They should just offer stock susp as a no cost option for anybody who has to have that.

Colour scheme is fantastic (save the trendy/tacky black rims). Like others note above, I am amazed at the continuing resistance of BMW to install a – you know – “sporting” suspension on such a limited edition model, especially since it has factory JCW power upgrades (and wears “F1″ badging)! Just amazing. If stock R56 suspension tuning was great or even “adequate”, I would give the missing suspension tuning a pass, but it isn’t…

Still… trying to stay positive… :) JCW suspension will sort this for another $2K installed and it’s a great looking factory JCW otherwise.
