help me with colors !!!
so im finally getting 2014 version of frs on this may and im super excited about it. however, i still havent make up my mind when it comes to choose color. i am gonna get either white or argento ... i dont know its too tough because they both look sexy as hell !!! i dont know man ... kinda wanna get white but its too common and as for argento i love it but i just felt like i like white just tiny bit more than argento though ... i dont know !! please help me decide !!!!
P.S: does argento=silver same ? or are they different ?? |
I would get white because you love it.
|
Either will reflect light quite well...and you live where there's tons of sun.
Buy whichever is the best deal...as you are buying used. Either color will look awesome with dirt/mud on it. |
Ask your SO .........;)

i dont know man,,my 10 series got 3 colors
silver,blue,grey Its only march now......you might change your mind on May. |
Argento was my second color choice - I usually dislike silver on cars, but argento just looks so good. Either way, they are both now discontinued colors as the 2014 models will be Whiteout and Argento instead of the now Halo and Steel.
Just go with the one you like the most, and don't worry about rarity, or other outside factors like which will show dirt more or less, etc - just pick the color you truly want and like, and you'll be happy. |
I went in the dealership with black in mind but the white just looked better in person. See if you can compare them side by side in person.
My 2 cents: Disregard what's popular. It's your car, get the color YOU like most! |
Sounds like your leaning towards white. Yes they're both "sexy as hell", I feel white compliments the black/red/silver interior.
IMO, forget about what is common and go with what makes you smile. Sit in both and choose the one that gives you goose bumps :-) |
I've owned 3 black cars in the past, but my BRZ was my first white car. I have zero regrets with getting white...especially since the "satin pearl" finish looks great compared to just regular white paint.

White because if you're planning to do mods like me (which are mostly all black trim pieces), it will very much compliment contrast the car as a whole compared to having a dark car with black trims (you pay good money for) where people can barely see.
4th year with my SWP BRZ and still no regrets. |
It's a Toyota. It should be white or red. Red was not an option so white.
|
Hot Lava. Disregard the other colors.

White looks cleaner

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Hot Lava or GTFO
|
If you go lava you can join Team Lava. But if you get white your only option is Team White Pwr and no body likes those guys...

Seriously, why would you look at anything else? |
90% of cars around are white, black or silver, roads look like funeral processions. Better get red, blue or lava.
|
White is the absolute worst color for a car. It reminds me of work vans plus they are hard to keep clean. If the dealer would've had Asphalt,that would've been the color that I would've gotten,but the Hot Lava on the lot looked almost like copper,so I went with that.
Either way,it's your money,get whatever YOU like. |

One thing I will say though is that with neutral colors like white,black and silver,you have way more options of colors for wheels,lugs,or any other accents. That's probably the worst thing about owning a Hot Lava. Orange and other colors besides black or white can be a hard sell. Not impossible,but somewhat hard. Orange and blue works,but I don't want to look like I'm representing the Bears or Broncos.I'm going with black and dark grey to accent my Hot Lava. |
My first choice was white and would have never considered a silver car because I hate silver. Then I saw how good silver looks on the 86 and it grew on me. Went with argento because white is so common (I see more white and 10 series in my area than I do Argento), and it looks so good when washed and waxed.

White looks amazing. Mines same white in that pic. 2013 and its Pearl metallic. Get white
|
I went to the dealer with getting White in mind but as I saw 4 white 86s on my way there I opted for my close second choice of Ultramarine and I couldn't be happier. I rarely see anyone with my color and it looks great under light (As all 86s do). But for your sake from how you were describing how you feel about white it seems like your pretty set on that. Go with your gut feeling. Either way you will love being behind the wheel which is the most important thing. :thumbsup:

***Just went to the Scion site. Did the color names change for 2016? White is now Halo. Silver is Steel. Blue is Oceanic. Red is Ablaze.
Not a fan of the pearlescent effect of the white. Plus with a color like white you lose a lot of the detail in the bodywork when it is bright out. To me, white makes the car look like a funny little blob. I typically don't like plain silver. I think it makes the car look a little cheap. The FR-S is cheap, but it is special so I think it deserves something cool. With that said, if you found yourself a Series 10 the silver is much more complex and you get a blue/ brown tint depending where you stand and the time of day/ cloudy/ etc. Of the 2, I'd go with Argento. If the white was flat, I'd do that. If I could do it over, I would probably have taken more time to find one in Asphalt. Instead, I walked into the dealership at 5pm and walked out at 9 pm with a Series 10. I kind of regret it because despite the complexity of the paint the car is kind of anonymous. My previous car was VW Tornado Red, so it has been an adjustment. I guess my narcissism misses the attention. Take your time and try to see all the colors in person. Not just at night or in the morning. Do drive bys at different times of the day. |
Hot Lava is a terrible color. It's like Tomato soup. It's almost as bad as "NOT" world rally blue on the BRZ. Yuck.
White! That's starting to sound racist. :scared0016: http://www.86worx.com/media/catalog/.../b97-003_2.jpg |

Like I said,I would have bought the Asphalt if they had it,but this was the next best color for me. |

White is nice but everyone has it, atleast on my area (socal), i will go with either asphalt cuz it makes the car kinda aggressive or red.
|
The white looks absolutely beautiful

Every one I see has the stock wheels. I don't think it supports the color well. I'd be willing to bet with some nice aftermarket rims the color would work better. ;) |
