Black, 100%! I guess it's settled.

Seriously, I'm having a hard time deciding, too. Race Red is too orange and the interior colors are sort of blah, everyone I know who has a black car say they would never buy another, my Chinese girlfriend says white is the color of death, and Grabber Blue is just too 'plasticy'. Silvers are a total no start. I guess it's black (which I hope I don't regret) or Kona Blue (nice, sometimes very dull, depending upon lighting).

If I only have the choice of the three than the Blue Grabber would be the ticket.

Ordered mine in Race Red.
It does not look real orange to me.
Kind of looks like Chevy Victory red to my eyes.

Black looks great when it is clean but it is never clean.
There are not enough hours in the day to keep a black car shiny. I had one once, loved it but there is no way to drive black and keep it looking good.

I voted grabber blue but for me its between race red and grabber blue. I still havent decided but i think if you wish to stand out grabber blue is the color for that. Race red is really nice in the daytime but at night or in particular lighting looks orange which i dont really like. Kona blue is another color i was considering but same as black you have to keep it clean.

That's an interesting comment. I assumed that Kona Blue was quite a bit easier to keep clean looking than black because KB is metallic. To anyone whose had both, a black car and Kona Blue: is KB much easier than black or pretty close to black?

I voted and ordered Race Red, but a lot depends on what interior color you choose. Not everything goes better with Coke a Cola.

Im getting a GT/CS so the intierior is going to be black charcoal. I have always loved black, thats what I have on my 05GT right now. I think im having a hard time deciding because im stuck with a black intierior.

Tough decision. I'd probably go with black, red, blue. In that order
