Color Comparo request

[Timmy_Jones]

Hey guys...undecided on 3 colors and was looking for some specific pictures. I was hoping people had pics of the following 3 colors with some basic mods.

Hot Lava
Whiteout
Firestorm

Any pics with black badges, tint, and some basic wheels?

I know I can search for these pics but I was hoping to just compile these here. I also haven't see a lot of modded Lava cars.

Thanks

theres my firestorm build, the first several pictures should give you an idea of what it may look like with tint and black badges etc!

also if you look in the photos/video section right under this section, you can find lots of pictures in the whiteout thread, hot lava thread, firestorm thread etc!

Borrowed a few pics...please let me know if anyone doesn't want their car here.

Impossible to choose. I had written Lava off because of the clash the exterior and interior colors, but my god you guys make it look awesome.

Find the color you'd feel comfortable with. Don't pick one because you were pressured into it. The car will look best by how you represent it.


Safe journey, my friend.

agreed, color is almost everything between "loving" and "liking" your car, If i had any color other than red, I wouldnt love my frs AS much to be honest

Not pressured into anything...they all look so great.

Is it bad my only concern about white is the popularity of it?

I chose the same three colors as you did and I made my decision as follows: Red sports car makes you a cop target and can increase insurance with some companies. Between the Whiteout and Hot Lava I went with white because of my age (I plan on keeping this car for 10 years and I didn't think I would still like the orange when I was pushing 40), had I been 6 years younger I would have gone with the orange.

I don't think white is the color that sells the most. Look at a bunch of the club photos on the forum, there is typically more black than anything.





My dealership claims they sell more Ultramarine then any other color.

I went with Asphalt. I was going to the dealer to order a Firestorm and I saw they had an Asphalt sitting out front and I left with it after i fell in love with the color. I was never a fan of the orange until I started seeing the builds people are doing with that color. It makes me kinda wish I went with orange....

Lava is incredible with a few mods. However, so are the other colors.

My current car is 'Sunset Orange Metallic' and gets a lot of looks.

I wish Scion made the interior with some color options, a matching orange to the exterior (instead of red) would have been very cool.

I am still a young guy, but Orange does come with a certain connotation.

Ultramarine? Sorry in advance, but that color is the furthest from anything I would want. That and Silver are just not flattering colors.

Pick the one that's most easily available, or pick the one with fewer miles. Let chance decide and you won't be disappointed.

Or you could flip a coin and feel what your gut says the instant it's hanging in the air.
