Anybody have any idea what this is about? Just poor English, eyes being fooled by what appears to be Enigmatic Black under show lights, or is Mini extending their multi-toned paint schemes to the body itself?

Agree. This post needs to be taken down now!

Just tried it now. Norton kicked in about an ad pop up it blocked, but the site loaded ok.
Its not Enigmatic black. Its a new, what appears to be, a blue to black gradient paint similar to what the new roofs are (only looks ten times better) Really like the blue colour effect. Hope they bring that in?
Only problem with gradient paintwork, is if you have an accident on say the door, or wing. They'd probably have to do the whole side of the car to get it to match! And trying to sort a scratch out that went from top to bottom would be a nightmare.

No issues here (surfing from a major university).

Here are the pics from the website should folks choose to play it safe.


The text reads "Viewed from the side, the new car uses a double color-blocking body, and the roof presents a suspension effect. In addition, the front and rear wheel eyebrows of the new car are designed with contrasting colors and are matched with 18-inch multi-spoke wheels. "

And, all I want is white-silver body colored roof and mirrors.
