djc 0 Posted May 4, 2010 A good cherry red can't be beat, I do have a soft spot for topaz though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari Boy 11 Posted May 4, 2010 Many of the greatest cars in history are red, also red 205's are faster than other colours. As I suspect you may have grasped, I am biased but I do like graphite 205 too .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djc 0 Posted May 4, 2010 I suppose if total originality is wanted you can't be too choosy. You buy for the car & settle for whatever colour it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richie 32 Posted May 4, 2010 Red, and yes, i am biased. But when i say red, i don't mean orange, pink, or mulitcoloured shades of red. I mean, full on mint cherry red! Personally i think silver is quite a good colour for originality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GLPoomobile 958 Posted May 5, 2010 Does it matter what anyone else thinks? Are you doing this for yourself, or to please the 'crowd'? At the end of the day, it's your car, you're the one who has to sit in it, and sees it on a daily basis, so paint it s*it brown if it makes you happy!

Daviewonder 533 3 Cars Posted May 5, 2010 It's all down to personal taste. For me the top 4 colours are- Cherry, Sorrento, Topaz and Silver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottish_lion 0 Posted May 7, 2010 Steel Grey! I never get bored of how it looks - dark on dull days, bright and almost green on sunny days... Saying that, until I got my Steel grey, I always loved Sorrento most Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
