got the silver since the white 86 they're selling is pearl white.. if they did come out with a different kind of white, i would probably have bought that one instead

chose silver because i prefer i light colored car and this is the next best thing to me next to white

Graphite? Why, are you buying a G35? Now if you mean Asphalt, it is my black without all the maintenance! I really wish the lighter "Graphite" was an option, so I could use black wheels as a contrasting accent.

Honestly I wanted hot lava first, whiteout second, and I think asphalt was my third choice. But the dealer knew they were getting a firestorm in a couple weeks, whereas they couldn't give me a date for the other colors. And once I saw it in person, I was sold. If I could do it all over again, I would make the same decision.

I bought red because i thought it was the most vibrant color and it also matched the personality and character of the car the best.

Fun, boisterous and cheeky.

I got the pearl white. What can I say, I'm a sucker for a clean white vehicle with black wheels and accents!

Blue is my favorite color and Subaru's color is Blue. Whenever I see a certain car in Blue(R34 Skyline, RX-7, BRZ, Corvette) I kind of hear that heavenly sound, so to speak.

Sonic Blue (aka ultramarine and gbs) because blue is my favourite colour ever. I kind of have a theme where everything I own is blue

Also, white and black 86's I see everywhere. It's more unique, and it shines brilliantly in the sun

I haven't got the car yet(I could've but I'm waiting for a Monogram) but I'm 100% going with a Ultramarine blue. Why? I always wanted a blue sports car plus blue is my favourite colour. If they offered a blue in between Ultramarine and WRB then I'd probably go for that, but any noticeable blue is good enough for me. My second choice would probably be red. After working with fleet cars, white and black cars are less desirable as white is annoying to keep clean while black gets worse as it ages. No silver because I never liked silver sports cars and silver is too boring in general.

I bought my car in whiteout because I think it looks the best and it speaks out to me the most. I've carefully considered other colors but always came back to white. And also because Scion doesn't offer it in wr blue pearl. If I were to do it all over again, I would still pick whiteout.

I bought mine because it was all they had...


But I also graduated from Syracuse University. So the minute they put my Syracuse Alumni plate frame on it, it was just a perfect fit. Syracuse Orange, yada yada.

I took mine in today to get my chirp which now sounds like a woodpecker looked at and while I was there I looked at the colors. Really digging red at the moment.
