So I have a dilema here...I know this will be based on personal preference but I just want some of your opinions that may help me choose b/t 2 cars.

Need your opinion on basically choosing b/t colors here:

(1) 93 Black LX:


OR....

(2) 92 Bimini Blue LX:


Which would you take? I can't have both so help me pick one!

Long story (for those who care)...
I currently have the 93 blk on blk LX. Don't get me wrong...I love this car! But my buddy recently reminded me of my old 92 Bimini blue LX that I used to have (which is the pic above). Of course I happen to run across the exact same bimini blue car I used to have for a pretty good deal on CL and crazy me bought it! It's not nearly in the mint condition my old car used to be in, but it will be if I put my time in. Anyways, I can go through all the details of what each car has but that doesn't matter to me right now. I want your opinion on paint color. So which one do you like?

***oops..sorry, I accidentally put 93 Bimini Blue in the poll. My bad!

As the owner of a black LX and the former owner of a 1990 Light Crystal Blue LX, i vote blue.

Everyone has black, and I love the contrast of the black trim against a different color paint.

I've gotta go with the blue. That's one of the best colors Foxes were ever made in.

Gotta go with blue myself, black looks great but it doesn't have the character of the bimini IMO.

I agree go with the Blue. And it's probably a lot easier to take care of then Black. Black is a great color but it is a lot harder to keep good looking.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

Blue was the color I wanted when I bought my car... I just couldn't find one with black interior and a five speed in as good shape as my calypso...

They are getting hard to find.

Black on black was exactly what "I" wanted, thats why I got it. To me it's the best. Go with what ur gut tells you. Black is a biotch to keep clean, but I love it.

Sounds like you have more of a personal tie with the blue, so I vote for that. Problem is, your sig says your black car is out of commission, so you would have to get it together and running before being able to sell it...
