Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
yep have to go with black, suits it so well
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
black ....... although I do like the metallic carribean blue
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
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 cars look the best and somehow don't look so dated.
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
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

Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
I have to admit i like the white ones too especially with the right alloys
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
White !
Had a zircon blue, that was good, but whites better hence this time round white.

Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
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.

Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
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

Mr Rapey Banana WILL get you...oh yes!
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
Definitely white, for that 80s retro look!
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
We all know its Black
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
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.
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
its black for me aswell mind you i do like the colour of mine its kind of funky and looks different in different lights
Re: *** WHATS THE BEST COLOUR MR2 ***
White is best!
see!
see!
