I did not care what color I got when I bought it, I just wanted an FR-S

While you don't have ALL the people here on the forums, with over 300 entries, I think you can safely assume that it's a good enough sample size. Your percentages might vary around 1-2% but even with more people, it should hold fairly true to what you see there.

So it would probably look something like this...

22-25% Whiteout/Satin White Pearl
12-14% Raven/Crystal Black
15-17% Firestorm/Lightning Red
13-15% Asphalt/Dark Gray
6-8% Argento/Sterling Silver
15-17% Ultramarine/Galaxy Blue
5-7% Hot Lava
1-3% World Rally Blue Pearl

I really though World Rally Blue Pearl would be a more popular color

BRZ owners don't often come to the FR-S section...

Silver. It actually seems less common and helps me blend in a little more if my right foot is feeling heavy. Also easier to keep clean since I live in a pretty dusty area.

EDIT: posting here since silver is available for both would have made that choice on the FR-S too.

I saw a few posts about the stitching and I agree it would look better matched. I think I'm going to resolve it eventually with either seat covers, or having them redone.
I think the orange reminds me more of a good Tequila Sunrise than Lava. Yummy!

Honestly, aside from Raven (I never buy black cars), I bought what was available at the time (Firestorm). I could not wait to own one after I took it out for a test drive.

Actually this is the only car, that i like all the colors on....but for me it was the Hot Lava from the moment i saw it, and it is a very unique Orange to, and the road or sitting presence it has, it makes the car look very close to exotic more so than any car i've ever seen under 50k...
