Discussion and technical advice the SW20 MR2. 3S-GTE, 3S-GE, 3S-FE etc
Anything and everything to do with maintenance, modifications and electrical is in here for the Mk2.
ok guys n girls i remember a thread i was on once about people saying what they thought was the best colour for mr2,s so i thought it would be great to hear peoples opinions and the reasons why not add some pics as well, i will start it off with my car and i like the colour of mine because it dark and its like a petrol blue in the day and looks black at night,
heres some pics, [/img]
so come on lets get this poll running and see [/img]
I'm with robbo, purely as mine's that colour.
Believe it's simply called dark metallic green, though there is serveral names listed under the 742 paint code.
That said though I am partial to black on MR2s.
White is best (as was my previous Rev3):
But now my current Rev3 is red, so it's gotta be red:
Black and silver are cool, yellow suits the car but I wouldn't have one, blues are a no and Goodwood Green is a big no.
Black hides the lines of a car, so it will always tone down any possibly dated styling. It's not a great color to show off the shape, though
I wouldn't mind black though, it would be cheaper to respray than metallic
White !
Had a zircon blue, that was good, but whites better hence this time round white.

caribean blue, is nice and rarer,
black is good, but looks dirty fast.
red is good also , but difficult to stop it going pink.
don't like aqua marine or white.
yellow ............you just have to be brave.
grey and other blues, i just have no opinion on........bland.
Me I think while not technically colours, white and black are the best. Only problem with white is dirt
Anyhoo, my car with my friends Jacks
My car from the back
and me embarrassing a Z4M at the pod - favorite stomping ground haha
Each to their own but I feel that white with white wheels holds a certain spark with me

It's got to be black. I've had 2 black ones now. White or red would come a close second. Blue or aquamarine are alright but dark green and yellow just don't do it for me.
