I've seen it in person. Theres a guy about 10 miles from me with it. Its not my personal favorite but it looks better in person than in pics so if you like it in pics you'll love it in person. It stands out..... ALOT.

The poll is the favorite colour, not the most common.

I'd have to vote
1 - Red
2 - Yellow
3 - Turquois.

Most other colours just seem to blend in with the other cars.

I'll agree with the white always looking dirty. But for the couple of days after a nice wash, wax, and polish, white is simply beautiful and almost bling'y.

Again I'll have to agree with you Trey. I never liked red cars until I owned a super red 93T. The car really looks like a damn Ferrari in that color and grabs lots of attention!

dont get me wrong I like black...its not my favorite but its not on my hate list either, somewhere in the middle.

My car is only black b/c it had the right price when I was ready to buy. and ive owned red cars in the past, a honda and a t-bird, they are just tired in my opinion. not to mention statistically proven to be more expensive on the ol' insurance and not to mention a ticket magnet...

Jaicvc · 11-02-2007, 12:14 AM

well stop point'n on my car buddy!

Final13 · 11-02-2007, 12:16 AM

I dont remember saying anything about black cars, or yours for that matter. I own one so I like it a little bit

I just realized what you are talking about...."see the above 2" just ment I didnt have a third one to hate on, so read numbers 1 and 2 again

No hat'in here man, nothing but love my friend, nothing but love...

Jaicvc · 11-02-2007, 12:20 AM

Out of the OEM colors, I just like that one. I like other colors too, just that none of them are OEM.

emtee33 · 11-02-2007, 04:19 PM

Yellow, because it's uncommon. PLUS that's what my 2 is.

Everett · 11-02-2007, 05:32 PM

My top 3: Tropical Blue M.
Nautical Blue M.(which is on my deuce)
Super White

I hate a red MR2's!

RePete · 11-02-2007, 07:16 PM

I've always admired Torquoise Metallic, it looked dated in the 90s but in person all shined up it looks pretty sharp, very distinctive considering there aren't many cars out there with that color anymore. Lately for me SMG is the most overrated IMO. Looks outstanding in pics but in person it comes off as a dull, languid shade in a current sea of gray, dark gray and champagne cars out there which I think robs the MKII of its gorgeous shape.
