Between those two, I'd pick silver. It is a safe colour especially for chips and scratches the factory paint would very well be subject to. I normally like red, but this shade for the Lancer simply didn't warm up to me (no offence to those driving that colour). If it were Ferrari red or maroon, I would have shopped it against blue.

In the end, like they said, get what you want and don't bother with what others will think.

Hi matey,

I know what your saying but the problem is im trying to convenience myself what I like.

To be honest they are my least favorite colourd and I will be getting in it every day and looking at it.

I made the big mistake of not walking away because of the price being really good.

So im trying to see what other people like and if they prefer one colour over the other and why.


As I said give me a blue, dark grey, white, or even black or orange and its easy peasy. But silver or red omg!!

Maybe I just buy both and pay two loans until I decide :( now that would be crazy

Hahaha

Red doesn't make you look gay mate. If you plan to mod up, red ends up looking mad. I had a Cool Silver too and I liked it. But I would prefer Red.

I wanted a Red VRX as a start :).

How long do you plan on keeping this car for?
Don't just settle for any colour because of limited choices.
Buying a car is like finding the right partner. Don't just settle for anything that is available only to regret it later. Finding the right car is like finding true love. *crazy* ok I think I've been on this forum for too long.

Red goes faster,

Silver never needs polish or wax in its life and only needs to be washed once a year LOL
