Massive failure last time.

If you had to choose a color other than the current color of your 8, what would it be.

I've always wanted Winning Blue, but the deal struck on the WWP. I wish they continued Yellow as well.

Edit: Could only do 10, So i combined Copper/Black Cherry.

Edit2: Sorry I forgot some of the more rare colors. COULD ONLY DO 10 POLL CHOICES. If the color you like isn't on there (besides series 2 colors), then include it in your post and feel free to add how much of an idiot/baised/failure/etc... i am.

It failed the first time, and you didn't even make it a poll for the 2nd time?

You are missing:
- Phantom Blue
- Aurora Blue
- Separate Copper Red and Black Cherry, very different colors
- Sparkling Black Mica
- Stormy Blue Mica

I get you are limited...which is what makes this entire exercise pointless

You can't include them all, so the results are going to be skewed.

Just try a poll of: red, yellow, blue, white, silver, green, grey and black. It stops the technicality in colors and gets straight to the point

I'm not doing an experiment. I just did this for fun. If the color you like isn't in the poll, then post it.

Except I'd get Phantom Blue or Stormy Blue, but not Winning Blue or Aurora Blue.

I'd get Copper Red but not Velocity Red..etc...



I think the OP is trying to accomplish something, and is afraid to just come out and ask the question he really wants to know.

Either that or he is trying to base his color choice on what other people think instead of what he thinks

There is no way I'd get any other color (have Crystal White Pearl Mica) but I guess if I was forced to, I'd go for Stormy Blue.

No love for Crystal White Pearl? Sheesh.

That said, my other choice would have been Winning Blue. Couldn't find a 2006 with that color and no sunroof, but I'm happy with my car. I just love a clean, white car.

Thank god when I went for my car the only one I could afford was the Sport, thus I ended up with the VR (which I now LOVE.) However, I really wish I could rotate cars, and if I ever hit the lottery I will, because I lust for the Stormy Blue, Lightning Yellow, the Black Cherry, even Brilliant Black, white, Winning Blue...

Yeah, the poll is kinda pointless. lol (but I love the dancing raccoon!)

Whats the difference between WWP and CWP?

I almost ended up buying Ferg's Winning Blue sport trim.

I love a clean white car as well, but mine will only stay clean for a few days.

i pretty much like an 8 in any color. strato blue (very purple) was never made available on the 8 in the US, and that's probably my fantasy color

I think that there is a very slight difference in tone or shade. Color code is different, at least.

I agree, white doesn't stay clean looking for long.

Yeah WWP and CWP have a faint difference in shade. There is also a bit more noticable different in the flake volume.





I still haven't voted

Sigh.


NM, I'm not. If I vote for WWP I'm not staying true to the poll, and you don't have even the next 2 colors I'd take.

Since I have a Black Cherry Mica, the only other obvious color I could choose would be Copper red !
