You live in MA, I assume the weather in winter must be bad. So you may wanna get a color which people can see you easily. I would say yellow. But then, silver looks nice too.

Well, guys, thank you all for such fast replies. I'm really impressed, this was my first post here. I just called the dealership and changed the color to yellow! You are right that it had to be me who decides the color. But, without actually seeing the car in silver/blue it was kinda hard for me to decide. Thanks once again, I'll be picking up the car sometime this week.

This is just NOT fair!! Here I've been waiting for my spa for 2 months now (hopefully next week) and you get to waltz right down there and get yours. Ugh!

Oh, wait, I just remembered we get to drive our toys most of the year while you get all that snow and nasty weather . . .

I assume you are aware that the 2002 is available in your area for 1000 below MSRP?? Out in California we have to work at it, but we can get them for MSRP.

Congrats on new car!

I'd say Yellow or red only because ANY wheel choice will look REALLY nice.

If it was me re-choosing i wouldn't have got Silverstone Grey i would have got RED =(. Yea i just LOVE those black rims on a red car.

IMHO, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the colors (I'm biased, can you tell?). When it comes down to it, you gotta go with your gut instinct. You're going to be looking at this car everyday for a long time so you don't want any regrets a week, month, year(s) from now. Good luck!

[My personal age-related opinions: If you're under 30, the Spa Yellow might be a good choice. If you're under 40, add the Red as OK. I'm over 40 and love my Silverstone color since it will age gracefully with me...and always look classic.]

Mas. You made an excellent choice. IMHO no color catches the eye better than spa yellow. As far as the above statement from paS2K goes, I'll turn 50 this year and my spa yellow helps me FEEL younger. Good luck and better driving.

Red is the fastest color. You could get yellow if you don't mind going slower
