Default which colour for new my07 wrx

which colour would you have. im about to order it and am torn between.

wr blue and black.

pros and cons- blue = everyones got that colour, but it does stand out and looks nice.

black = different, but shows alot of scratches/ swirls, and hard to keep clean.

your views pls

Black looks the business. Just make sure you order it with the WRX rear spoiler. The MY07 looks strange to say the least without it.

yes this is my 1st scoob, coming from a racing blue 182 with white stripes.

i had a 206 gti in black and it was a pain to keep clean, plus it would show up the car wash marks all the time.

arhhhhhhhh really like it in both colours

If you wash Black properly there are not that many swirls.

Crystal grey is not a colour choice for 07 models, how about urban grey? New shade for 07 cars, subtle but effective. I am trying to spec my new 07 model demo WRX and think urban grey with small boot lip spoiler and the PPP is on the cards.

Mr Greenwood, we have had this conversation before.
As a Demo I would try a white one to be different?

Black all day long mate. Autoglym do a super resin polish formulated for black and very dark coloured cars. The solution is much thinner and therefore does not leave the swirl. Take it off with a microfibre cloth and MMMMMmmmmmMMMMMM

WR Blue all the way....not the best photo though


My last car was black and whilst it looked great post-wash on the driveway, it is a nightmare to keep clean - you'l be moaning about the salt in winter and the dust and flies in summer!

What a retarded thread

The colour you choose for the car is the one you want to see everytime you look at it, no one else's opinion matters if your an individual
