Just like a midnight black sky with a silver lining, this new MINI Countryman Edition isn't just black, it's metallic, glossy and monochromatic. The Piano Black Exterior trim along with special double matt paint on exterior decals and subtle elements of the Shadow Edition adds an air of mystery. Depending on your point of view shadows appear on different elements as the light breaks differently.
