Which P5 color should i get
 
I know this has been posted before but I am going to get my P5 in a couple of weeks and I don’t know which color to get? I have been debating about this for a while, what color does everyone recommend. :bt:
And please no one say something like purple or bright green LOL ! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Seems like a matter of personal taste to me. However, I will point out that car companies in commercials of late seem to favor silver with dark window tinting.

Strangely, I have a silver one with tinted windows...

Definately the Midnight Blue. Anytime there is a dark blue available in any car...go for it!! :) White would look cool too. Both with some nice tinted windows. :cool:

yellow is an excellent choice

Depends on where you live. Winter tends to be easier on lighter colours especially silver. dark colours are a bitch to keep clean, especially black. I have black and it needs to be washed like everyday in the winter.

I was torn between silver and navy blue. I ended up going with the silver, as it doesn't show dirt and scratches as much. I think it's going to look really cool with tinted windows.

I really wish that Mazda would offer some more colors on this car, maybe a deep metallic red and a light blue-silver color like Toyota offers on the Matrix.

Well, if you don't wanna be like everyone else who has replied, go with the Classic Red! Very nice, eye catching, fairly easy to keep clean, and looks sweeeeet. :bt:

Classic Red!
 
You definitly have to go with Classic Red. It's Cheaper for one, (the only "free" color on the P5, so you can now invest that money into a sunroof or something :bt: ) and it seems that every red addon for the car matches the paint color perfectly! (Brake caliper paint, red hoses under hood, Injen Intake) I've got all of these on my car, and it looks great! A perfect match!

Red is such an easy color to maintain... Doesn't look too bad when it's dirty, but when it's clean, WOW! If you'd like to see some pics of my clean Classic Red P5 with matching calipers, hoses, etc, email me here and I'll be happy to show them to you.

I hope you make the right choice... ;) And for all you crips out there, driving a Red car does NOT make you a slob... :the finge :cool:

There really shouldn't be a debate, of course you go with Black Mica, the preffered colour of Makaveli, all rights reserved.




All the other lazy people that have those light colours can't even come close in looks to me at night, as Sinead O'Connor once said....

"Nothing else compares"


btw, I'm not a fan :doh:

douggie February-7th-2002 09:43 AM

There's a POLL done on this forum a while ago. Seems that Midnight Blue is still the winner! :bt:

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: I dont know which one to pick :( Maybe i will call Bill Gates and ask for him to buy me all the colors :bt:

:(

Color cost
 
TheMAN, I believe there is a price difference for the different colors in Canada. And they don't get a roof rack, but they can get side airbags and ABS separately.

Now, I have to go back and change what I said--I agree that if you live somewhere where the weather is not too ridiculous in the summer, the midnight blue is the way to go. But here in Texas, a dark car with a black interior is just asking for trouble, and my wife was already driving a blue Protege, so I went with second-best, which is quite obviously silver.
:bt:

Thanks for the input everyone :). This will help me greatly in picking the color i want, because i like all the colors and didnt know which one to get :bt: . Hopefully this is the month for me to get my P5 ! ! !

If i can hurry up and pay all these stupid credit card bills off :(
I hate VISA ....... :the finge LOL
