mx5apex · 05-02-2011, 10:16 PM

I like the reds, orange and dark blue... with pearl or mica for added pop. I don't much care for flat colors.

That Skittles ad about the kid with the Skittles tree growing out of his chest freaks me out...

Back on topic, saw a brown Toyota Venza today. Not for me. Ever.

I love black cars. Every car I have owned has been black. But I have told myself that I don't want another black car due to the heat of the summer "frying" the inside of my car. I was thinking a silver/gunmetal color would help a little and still look good. But now I am thinking maybe white might be better. Just not sure I like the contrast of the black grill with the white body paint. That is why I like black because the grill just blends in so nicely.

I love black cars for the looks. But like you said its a pain in the rear when it comes to heat. Also gets dirty a lot quicker.

I have heard others say that about white as well. Never owned a white car myself, but is that a consensus that white gets dirty just as easily as black? Or is it less so?

Anyone have experience with a silver color? How was it in the summer heat? What about getting dirty easily?

FR-HachiRoku · 05-02-2011, 11:14 PM

Yeah my buddy has a white STI and within a week of being cleaned you start to see it getting dirty again.

I distinctively remember that in GT5 there are yellow or orange FT-86c so I pick yellow. However, the yellow I prefer will not be like the taxi cab in NYC, nor will it just be a regular yellow. I am really digging the Ferrari Modena yellow shown in GT5.

Dark blue will be my second choice then. Just anything but white or silver.

Silver cars are nice. Even if its dirty its not as noticeable like black. Summer isn't so bad. Still gets hot but not searing hot like black.

Thanks. I guess I will have to wait once the car is in production and hits the dealer floor to decide which color I like best. I know that I like black/white/silver/gray/red and I would be okay with blue.

Just don't like the green, orange, teal, yellow so probably wouldn't go with any of those.

As many have said his car looks great in several colors. Which is a good thing, just makes it hard to decide.

SCIONIZED · 05-03-2011, 01:33 AM

Code red looks pretty good or white. Orange or purple depending on the shade would look good on this car.
