Special K 81 0 Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Ive a silver mark 3 vr,...now if you like silver...cool, im a bit on the fence with silver,reason being...i think it definately suits some makes and models of cars,...but i refer to it as 'safety silve'r...because..new cars now,..people choose black and silver(also white now as 80's concept is back,i was going to rock white paint a few years back,,money held me back, i wish i had back then.lol...trend setter.ha ha). Salesman says what colour would you like,red,blue,orange,yellow,green....nope i best stick with silver.lol Nothing wrong with either black or silver but have you noticed at sets of lights, car parks and just about everywhere it is a sea of none colour, i owed a red escort gti a while back in red, polished and waxed it gleamed and stood right out...are we losing a bit of balls with our choice of colour??anyway as aforementioned i own silver '6', toying with diferent colours for the future but then thought i cant recall seeing a silver mark 3 vr6 before on the road, now im sure they are out there obviously but is it one of the rarer colours that you get tutted for changing?? if so thinking of matt silver or something similar Link to post Share on other sites
