Black, Blue, or Red R3?

I'll get what I like, but just curious which is the most popular R3 color.

Black used to be my favorite, but after seeing the blue it just pwns.

I don't have an R3, but if I were going to get one that would have to be the color.

My 2009 R3 is red. I think the car in red stands out more when compared with the blue.

They all look good. But you could get they made the red and black for years.
This color blue can only be found on the R3 and that makes it a little more
special. That and I really like the blue.

I voted Black but if White was available it would be what I would have bought. I do love the blue and red but after owning cars with color for a few years you do get sick of the color. This is why I only buy Black or White cars now lol - crazy...maybe??

Blue is my favorite, but black is the most limited - as they are no longer producing the R3 in black for 2010.

I really like blue the best, but it seems to be the most common. Back when they came out, there seemed to be all of red and black ones showing up here. Now, everyone gets blue. Because it's the best.

One reason I chose blue was because it's only available on the R3 (in the U.S. at least). So it's sort of special, like the copper shinka or something.

Blue is nice too.
