Angry HELP!! I cant decide on colour!

Hails people, I was checking out some pics, member rides on this site for quite some time now, but never took the time to actually post something in these forums.

Anyhow, I am getting my CIVIC SI very soon, matter of days/few weeks, but can't decide what colour to go for. I am having SERIOUS trouble picking BLACK or SILVER!!!!






Anyone else here had similar problems? damnit!!

Black or Silver....??
Well, here's some advise... Pros and cons
Black
When you clean it, it looks CLEAN!!! but it gets dirty easily

Silver
When it's dirty it looks clean, but when you clean it, it looks like you haven't done nothing.. cause it always looks clean.. (IMO, I don't like that)

Black and Silver
There's alot of them everywhere

Since you're going for Si, go with Silver because you'll have the matching side mirrors.

But if you ask me, go for the WHITE one cause white looks SICK, SICK, SICK!!! I wish I got white.. but then again, it would've turned to my custom blue anyways!!! HAHAA

why do you want a common color. every 7th gen i see is silver or black. i got inca pearl, and nobody around has got that color. great for finding your car in a parking lot!

Good point, but since I am too lazy to clean the car, maybe I should get the silver one.


As far as white goes, I love it too, but it doesnt come in that colour.

go for the ruby red colour like my buddies mom has LOL, just playing, i have the silver and i like it, but black is sick too,

pros black - nething CF doesnt stand out (as much as it would on silver), if u buy ne lips or what not they come in flat black (saves $$ when u dont have ne, like me )

silver - nething CF stands out like a white kid on an all asian message board (ex. me) and everything else pretty much mathces with it, rims and what not

inca is sick too, if u have seen most of the cars at the meets ( plus u would be able to get any of gusto's old body parts and save on paint )

but its all up to u, if u r gonna paint it soon anyways do w/e u want

personally, cuz i have, but given the choice again, silver

Well, I wont paint the car, that's for sure and I am not going to modify it except maybe tint the windows and MAYBE get new rims. See, I am going to lease my Civic


By the way, you said ""silver - nething CF stands out like a white kid on an all asian message board (ex. me) ""

Is this board predominantly Asians?

See, I am afraid if I get black, I might regret not getting silver, but then again, if I get a silver one, I might regret I didnt get black.

i personally think grills and stuff look better in black...
oh well..

you'd possibly regret getting any colours let it be silver, black

but the good thing about these two colours is that a lot of ppl have them = many used parts...

Have you been to any of the meets?? If not, maybe you should so you can see what you like. There are alot of Blacks and Silvers that are done up... from simple, clean look to outrageously modified, not-even-a-civic-anymore look car.

Man, get black and just keep it clean. It looks sick.

If you still can't make up your mind just flip a coin....

Black one looks "sick"? I dont want it then, I like healthy cars. :devil:


As far as flipping a coin goes, belive it or not, I thought about that too.
