I think most great examples of MVP are pretty invisible because you are typically starting off testing it with small groups of users -- just enough to get feedback to move it to the next stage. Otherwise it isn't the M in MVP -- It's not the minimum.
We are big fans of using Dave McClure's Pirate Metrics model... building activation first, then retention, and then going for acquisition, etc.
The first version of CoderBuddy was very minimally-viable compared to where we're at today. It was enough to get something done and to use in workshops. Since then we've analyzed where the biggest bottlenecks are improving activation etc., along the lines of the Pirate Metrics model.

Hope this helps.
