Its funny to read about people with whiteout envy, when I saw a firestorm, and wanted to trade.

The color of my dad's Ralliart is called 'Rotor Glow'. It's just like Hot Lava. I love it. Hot Lava has my vote.

I think the same way.. Although Silver is a great color.. My 05 tC was Silver and my 01 SLK320 was silver .. Black is just well.. so sinister looking. especially when you add a spoiler, fog lights, etc.. I'm still torn between the two colors and I know I don't have to decide right now.. But I do lean towards Silver as theres just too much dust where I live.. I'll be cleaning the car every time I drive down the road from my house.. grrrr!

i was between Raven and Asphalt and ended up going with Raven. The black looks so nice on this car, especially with the black and red interior. A guy i work with has the Whiteout and i don't really like it. I've personally never liked white cars, especially sports cars. To each his own

Very well said.

Is the black on the FR-S the same as the Subaru? Mica/pearl?

I like the colors that show dirtiness easier when they are actually clean but I've always had a thing for white.

Idk I think you can 2nd guess a color choice forever. That said I think I will always buy light cars after owning a wrb sti cause they are easier to maintain. But black is a great looking color.

White is also a dull color that doesn't show dings or swirls. BOth drive me crazier than dirt

I've had 2 black cars and when they are clean, no color will beat it, NOTHING.

And I have a whiteout, sometimes I wonder what it would be like having a raven.

Don't sweat it, just detail it more. =P
