Most popular color

What is the most popular color for an exige s? Does one normally bring more money than another?

I don't think color has much to do with resale value, unless a buyer really, truly has his heart set on a color. Then it gets down to supply/demand.

I have a Canyon Red and love it, but I got a fantastic deal on it. For that deal, I'd have taken it in almost any color but Krypton Green or that other flourescent green that just came out. For those I don't know that the seller could've taken enough money out of the deal for me to buy.

Check it out...Lotus Paint Colors - LotusTalk Lotus Gallery

Phantom black is the most macho color for an Exige. Even a clean one.

And there's always one of my favorites, orange...

The last one is an Elise, but who cares?

I think that is my old Exige on the way to or back from LOG27 Aspen

That was a great car but then again they are all great

I would say most popular is what you like..

But I have noticed that anything BRG goes for less then any other color.

If it wasn't for the spammers, we would miss all these great threads that slipped by.

I like Racing Green, but haven't seen an Exige in that color. And of course the one Persian Blue car, which looks awesome.

Where does one get one of those hood ornaments? Must be a California option!
