Steel Grey Metallic is the best colour ever put on an STI, anyone who says differntly is either a Appalachian mouth breather or high. Im not just saying this because I have one its just the truth, just ask the Pope.

Black and blue are my favs, probably in that order.....hell, it really depends what you do with it afterwards. You can jazz up any color car to look sexy.....

I got the black because it is the best in my opinion when clean. However, pay attention to the last word in that first sentence because most of the time the black is exactly the oposite.

I love my car after a nice wax, but 20 minutes later it is covered in very fine dirt carried by any winds. I swear, every single time for the last 3 years that happens. I go do a 100+mph run on the highway and that crap is still all over it.

Now, I am thinking of either going white or dark gray on the next ride. Gray is just so "neutral" though and it doesn't get your attention as quick as any other clean looking car.

WRB FTW

But if I could do it all again, I would go black or white.

I have WRB...which I really like...but given another chance (if the dealer had one with the exact options I wanted) I just might pick a light color...like white or silver...more visible to other drivers (at least the white), cooler in the summer, shows the dirt less, maybe less of a cop magnet....

[Then again RED is nice too...but I don't see many of those....]
