Welcome! Whether or not to get an FA or FG, it's just personal preference. Personally, I didn't want another sedan, so I went with an FG and haven't looked back since -- I like everything about it.

Hands down. That's why I chose it. Lot's of work to keep it clean, but it's worth it in the end.

Black is a pain in the ASS to take care of.
It's also because I live on a dirt road... =\

I own TWO black cars, an EK7(EJ6) and my FG2 and I have to wash them once a week, though I should wash them once every 2 days.

-If you want absolute beauty, and are willing to work for it, go with black.
-White's a pretty good compromise: hides nearly all minor scratches. My four door before my FG was white, and I was pretty happy with it.
-Blue's just a great color for Florida, I think, or any consistently sunny environment.

Go with White or Black.. Fiji is just as hard to keep clean its a dark color.

I had a both and I like the 4 door.. but I loved the sporty look of the 2 door. Plus I got my girl a 2 door so i got the best of both worlds hehe

^^^Actually man, I might be able to make Bennigan's if you two can wait or are going to be there 'till about 8:30. Not saying you're obligated to or anything, but I'll show up if you two will be there around then.

WHERE ARE MY FRACKIN' BULBS?!@#?@
