Default If you could change the colour of your car...

...to any other Subaru (or other manufacturer) colour what would it be.

I know there will be a fair few of you who would not change.

Personally:

Subaru Colour: Urban Grey or White
Other: BMW CSL Grey

I saw a matt black Audi last week and thought that would suit my scoob. I went online to check peoples comments etc and EVERYONE said it would be a bad idea to spray a car this colour. I'm just keeping it grey now which is the colour I chose when buying.

i dont want to change the colour of mine i love it but if i did have another colour i would change it to the colour i have now

but if mine was a classic i would have a white one if it was a blob a blue one and if i had a hawk a black one and really new one would have to be in white.
