I got asphalt, although I think argento looks great too. I couldn't decide which one I wanted more. Still can't

I can appreciate hot lava, but I don't think I would want it as my only car haha.

Red, red, and red, all day long. Every car I've owned (where I had a choice) was red. Every car I buy will be red.

Red. I hate red cars, but this is my 3rd. Buying used, the best deal I could find was on red, so I pulled the trigger. I currently have a red s2000 and red Miata that were bought for the same reason - price. I hate red, yet I find the best deals on red.

What do u guys think?
I went with Firestorm because I could get it quicker then I could get Hot Lava. I didn't really care which color, just wanted something bright. To argue for firestorm though, the red stitching and red accents on the seats match firestorm better then hot lava, and the engine bay isn't exactly hot lava. It looks brownish. Something that wouldn't bother me if I owned one, but it's a reason I use to justify going with firestorm over hot lava. So something to take into consideration.

A lot less Argento/Sterling Silver than I would have guessed.

That's what I thought, but I searched for around 15 min and all I could find were ones about what color you wanted to get not what color you actually bought.

Please post a link if you can cause I'd like to see the results.

I've been meaning to take more but it's been cloudy and gloomy lately. Hopefully next day off I have (fri/sat) I'll take a drive and snap some more pretty ones.

This is my other baby:

As Yoga Berra might have said. Silver cars are everywhere, nobody's buys them.

My wife picked the Argento for me. Said it looked the most like a race car. I figured it might turn out to be rare. I like that it is.

I love my argento. I never saw many of them, but after I got mine it seems that every time I go to a dealer I see an argento for sale
