Curious to what was the deciding factor on the colors you all chose.

For me it was black, my 1st accord was Dark emerald green, so i did'nt won't that color again. Each and every time I go to the dealership I look to get black cars but never seem to find one anyhow maybe on day I'll get one

I just bought a black car and I don't like it. It gets really hot and there's no A/C. Plus all of the flaws show up really quick. But it looks good once it's been shined (except for all the chips, the paint job is kind of poor to begin with), so i would still pick it. I used to like red until that got me 2 speeding tickets. I think it depends on the car though. I'd love to have a '32 Ford roadster and for that I would have to go with a candy orange and pinstripes. For an Integra, plain white. I would also love a flat black EVO. Any kind of sports car should be either yellow, orange, or even neon green on the right car.

Honestly I just love Black. Idk it just looks so badass, especially with black tint on the windows. Other then that I've always been a fan of darker blues or darker reds. Even Championship White (if it wasn't so hard to keep clean) and the Type-R Yellow is growin on me.

I just dont think its my luck to get a black car all the cars that I've ever bought has been green lol so maybe I should go in looking for green and I would come out with black.
