I did see the lilac and yeah although I liked it, I was a bit let down. I was also interested in checking out the dark beige. In the end, I ended up with a dark pink reissue but I am thinking to myself I was really wanting to add a bubble gum pink color to my collection before a dark pink/raspberry. Also, I feel aesthetically I like the look of classic minis to reissues although I already have 2 reissues in my collection prior to this. I am wondering if I just got something because I had almost $4k in credit and was in a rush to get something before the next price increase. Torn too.
Seems like you like the blue better, but ultimately are you settling?
