A question about colour!

Im in the "fortunate" position of buying my second BRZ this year after I wrote off my white 2016.

I love all the colours! So rather than ask about favourite colours, what I want to know is...

Do you ever wish you bought a different colour?

Nope. I fall in love with mine a little more every time I see other colors.

What colour is that?

I'm thinking I'll probably get another white. I felt love every time I saw it, so I expect that to continue. Just ... it's a new chapter.

Everybody seems to be able to get a blue or a white around here, but I couldn't and ended up with a grey.

Love the Green Chrome.

On the bright chrome, the owner of a local wrap shop near me has an F250 that was wrapped like this at one point (he changes it about once every six months). You DO NOT want to be in or around it when the sun hits it. It's blinding to other drivers.

I'm running a WRB and not once have I thought I should have bought a different colour.

I have a WRB BRZ and love it, except for when I meet up with other 86 owners and there are 5 out 8 that are also WRB. I do like the dark grey.

Never have quite understood the WRB "obsession", it's just another shade of blue. Then again, I like Red so what do I know!

My WRX was WRB and looked awesome, but it was nothing on a shiny new white BRZ.
