What colour does the GTA need most

strife · 08-17-2006, 09:38 PM

Hey everybody! ive been trying to figure out what colour I like best... my heart was set on RR.. but my gf thought it was "too bright" ... Im getting a DX-G or an LX... I figure the black DX-G will cover up the non colourcoded handles and side mirrors.

Ive owned a black 99 civic hatchback for a long time.. and i dont like how visible paintchips, cobwebs, and imperfections look.

but what does everyone else think?!?!

Silver

strife · 08-17-2006, 10:15 PM

haha, I was looking at silver, but the DX-G doesnt look very nice in silver.

Lithium · 08-17-2006, 10:41 PM

haha, who's buying it YOU, or her? Buy the RR you pussy!! lol

strife · 08-17-2006, 10:59 PM

hahahaha, im gonna get the RR if i get the LX, but i realllllly dont like the non colour door handles and mirrors on the red... looks ugly

but the black makes it all blend in :)

Neutron Blue is nice. You could easily get the black parts painted.

strife · 08-18-2006, 01:20 AM

yea thats true as well... I also dont mind the galaxy grey..... ugh.. so many decisions... im gonna go test drive some more cars tommorow i think

DumbasSi · 08-18-2006, 03:05 AM

Or just cough up the extra cash and get an EX. More options and features, nicer wheels, etc.

^^ agreed

just dont get black lol... i saw 5 black civic on the way home last night

Unless Canada is different, I didn't think any models except the EX and Si came in Rallye Red?

But as others have said, the painted handles and mirrors are available as well, but if money isn't that much of an issue, you should try to bump up to an EX. More options for the money, but it is a rather large jump from the DX to the EX.

RR was my 2nd choice (NBP was first, Fiji Blue was third) but since I got my RR, I'm glad I didn't get the black. RR looks REALLY good on the Si where as the black ones I've seen look nice, but it doesn't WOW me like the RR.

+1 for a great colour

strife · 08-19-2006, 02:08 AM

thanks guys for the input... I definitly dont have enough money for a EX... being only 18 I can barely afford this car lol. But out of every car out there this one is by far the best in value... and I love Honda!!!

But yea...I have 3 weeks to figure everything out, I have a feeling its gonna be a coin flip for red or black.

NEMESIS_2006 · 09-17-2006, 06:35 AM

I fell in love with this blue:

I'd personally recommend staying away from black. I've had a black car, and it showed every speck of dirt or imperfection, sounds like you had that experience as well.

jballer187 · 09-19-2006, 05:02 AM

wait a month and get white! you wont be disappointed. either that or just go with your first instinct. Double R yo!

All Canadian coupes are available in RR.

The Canadian spec LX comes standard with the same 16" alloys as the EX. The DX/DX-G has the 15" steelies.
