Plain white reminds me of toothpaste and whiteout and other bland stuff. I only like this pearlescent white...and so I am considering it.

Otherwise red was always my first choice.

I do not care about how many old guys are driving the white. To me, Takumi drives a panda AE86, so the white is the only correct choice. WRB or LR? I do not bother to look.

I love the red one and bought my BRZ that way. Turns out to be a rare choice -- I have only seen a single other red one in the wild (plus one at a dealer) since the car was introduced last year.

White is for trucks and corporate shuttle vans.

Red is for sports cars.

Surprised to see them even in the poll, would have expected either 'racecar' or 'red is for children, the BRZ is for the refined enthusiast'

I think this comes down to your personality. I have a white one. There was a red one at my dealer when I bought that was absolutely beautiful. I bought the car to drive though. I don't want people looking at me. That is why I like my white. Low key.

I like them both. I initially didn't like white but realizes its whitish silver. I just wish this color was not as popular lol.

Red was my 1st choice but I like light col9rss best
