Chose Firestorm, Asphalt, and Hot Lava.

Jokester · 02-19-2012, 10:57 PM

I am extremely torn between Hot Lava and Raven. They are in a dead heat tied for first with the loser ending up in second.

Ultramarine is in third for me, with Asphalt in fourth.

For me if I am going as dark as Asphalt I would prefer Raven b/c I have always wanted a black car but never pulled the trigger b/c the winters in NY are brutal to Black cars.

I might as well just flip a coin at this point I'm that torn. The Hot Lava reminds me of my '04 Nissan Z in Sunset Le Mans, but I have always wanted black.

The only thing that I fear with Hot Lava is that it seems when that color is not in direct sunlight it turns reddish.

What to do... What to do?

Ultramarine it is, lol

I would get either Whiteout or firestorm

HitTheGas · 02-21-2012, 07:55 AM

I'm leaning towards Whiteout.

I would go silver, but Argento is still too dark a silver for my tastes. If it were a brighter/shiney-sparkly metallic silver paint i would get the silver. Like the BMW metallic silver.

If it's available I'll have white with saddle tan leather interior.

Thanks. That helps with my decision. I won't buy a car with a black interior.

I'll tell you what is really jamming me up on the Hot Lava finish, is that it is impossible to figure out.

Look at it on a Toyota FT-86, and the one side & rear FR-S shots we have and Hot Lava looks to be a very orangey pearl/metallic color.

But in some of the videos it looks to be a very reddish dark orange metallic, and on the Scion iQ, which I saw in person yesterday in Hot Lava, it looked very similiar to the shade the car in the video looks.

But I know that the FR-S with its bolder and more rounded sporty shape may give it a different shade due to lighting and the lines on the car.

Has anyone had the pleasure of seeing this color in person on the FR-S, maybe some of you Canadians, etc...?

ultramarine is the one for me!

Linseal · 02-22-2012, 01:34 PM
