If I had to pick from your list above, then probably white/tan, but the right car done right can look good in darn near any color.

I can't stand a light grey interior. Pair it with any exterior color you want, I'm not a buyer.

I'm also not a fan of black exteriors, or any color so dark that it resembles black.

Green and white...of course what do I have? A '67 green and white VW bus.
It's grown on me.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

On another thread, someone posted a picture of a bright blue Rolls with bright blue leather.
Maybe Elton John would appreciate it, but to me it's about the ugliest combination I've ever seen.

Silver or gray anything. So damn sick of it. It’s like a sea of god-awful stainless steel appliances out there.

Anything with actual COLOR (like red, blue, green, yellow, brown, etc.) is a welcome sight!

It's funny, I haven't ever gone looking for a car by color. I look for the best that I can find of a particular type of car make/model and pretty much whatever color it is, I'll be fine with.

I LOVE my car and it's silver. I've considered putting some of the black fender/arch protectors in front of the rear tires similar to the old 911s. One of the things that I like about my car is that it's probably going to blend in a little and allow me to fly "a little under the radar" which is good.









I've always wanted a silver 930 with the black fender guards



My previous car before the boxster. It doesn't get much brighter than this was although in the fading light of dusk, it didn't look that bright. I was pretty dubious at first, but I really loved the red.



Before that I had a black miata and before that a black 911. I really didn't want anything black because of the Houston heat, but I did love both cars.

I would have loved to have bought one of these Boxsters if they had come with the same options that my current car has.
