Wrong color for me Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Mon, 17 Jan 2011 07:28:20 In Reply to: lemme know!, LesH, Fri, 14 Jan 2011 11:48:40 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Nothing wrong with red, we have owned red vehicles in the past, except I have a 100+ mile daily commute. I need a car color which can mask some of the highway dirt. A dark silver metallic, light to medium gray metallic, or some shades of gold metallic are best. My current 9-5 is Frost Gray metallic.
I owned one black car in the past and have vowed never again. I read a post on-line from a car owner who loves black cars and his statement was something akin to "You never really own a black car, it owns you" because of the constant cleaning/dusting/washing required. I foresee Laser Red as requiring this same level of constant upkeep with a 100+ daily commute.
Beautiful car at a fantastic price, just not the right car for my driving needs.
