Which exterior paint color is the most divisive?
Across the entire FT86 platform, which exterior paint color tends to be the most divisive (love-it or hate-it, nothing in between) among enthusiasts?

I think lava orange and firestorm are really the ones people either really do or really don't like. Personally I can't stand blue.

White black and silver, sociometrically, are worn out as old huaraches.

Locally we have a lot of twins, and the most loved colors tend to be the more rare ones. Colors they only made over specific year models. Ablaze Orange, Neptune blue, moonslate, hakone etc.
Asphalt is probably the most common color out there. It's a PITA color to keep looking good, just like black but the color pops if you have pristine paint.. I still get compliments on mine every now and then. |

White is all colors, Black is no colors, Silver is boring.
Any car that is a color is good! |

Boring silver gang represent!
Drove a red car for almost 15 years and felt like I had a target painted on the car. Driving silver and I'm lost in the crowd now and police don't seem to see me any more. Also helps to now have an R3 radar detector that sees them from miles out before they even know I'm out there. Kind of fond of yellow cars so I might leave silver crew for Release Series 1 yellow or if they came out with that tonic yellow color on civics but, both colors can be seen from miles away defeating the radar detectors cloaking ability. Since the subject came up, people who drive green or gold cars give me the willies and everybody knows you either can't trust them around little children and/or they smell like cabbage. |

How can the color be divisive, we have more than 30 to choose from, not just 2 like some things.
