Silver. Generally always looks clean. We’re on gravel multiple times a week.
Dark grey is choice number two.

Wife got the pearl white. It’s a beast to keep clean.
Thank goodness Griot’s Garage Speed Shine is sold by the gallon!

I simply refuse to buy black exterior, or black cloth interior.

On my "avoid if possible" exteriors are very dark ones such as dark navy, charcoal, etc., and bright white.
On my "avoid if possible" interior are black leather, white or off white anything, or any with wild contrast graphics.

I checked "or" so here I go. When it's time to buy a new vehicle, I'm looking for a color that I like, that I haven't had before, or one that I haven't had in some time.

I was originally looking at my car in the darker blue, but got a better deal on the lighter blue. I'm happy with it.

Living in Arizona, you don't want the heat to build up any more than it does already. So you stay with light colors, both inside and out.

I first thought that was a silly color, until I saw one in person. I’m glad that a Tundra in Cement popped up with the options I wanted right as I was buying. Should look good with black off road armor. Normally I like blue.

Now that is a unique answer and I like it.

For all you prospective Tacoma and other Toyota owners; stay away from the dark blue.

All you need to do is check out the paint of a five plus year-old Tacoma to understand.

Same here.

To paraphrase Henry Ford: any colour is fine as long as it's BRG.

White. Easy to keep clean and cooler in the sun.

I'm a big fan of gunmetal and grays rather than bright flashy colors unless its a sports car.

If I were in the market right now, I probably would get a Toyota in Cement gray or Quicksand tan. Both seem to blend well with any environment.

My next one is going to be "Gobi" which is a "Dessert Tan", on a Jeep Gladiator.

I’m really liking the Rich Copper color on the new Explorer

White. Better visibility to other drivers in the dusk; as long as you are not going with blaze orange or neon yellow.

Funny because I was notified that it is time to replace my company car. I have had silver and black cars for too long.

I opted for the olive green Jeep Cherokee.

Life is too short to have the same color car all the time!

For my next car I'm going for red. Never owned a red car. Have owned multiple black cars and never again. While they look great when clean and shined up, the maintenance to keep it that way is a part time job.

I bought a new truck in 2005, I test drove a sand gold flake truck, when we got to signing papers it had been sold out from underneath me...I told the salesman that if they had another one with the same stuff I didn’t care what color it was.(it was fire plug red)...Mrs. mike was shocked... it doesn’t matter to me what color something is...the paint is to protect the underlying metal from rusting...



My new truck I got last year is silver. I told the salesman I didn’t care about color but I didn’t want black because it’s hot here in Texas. I wanted gray or white to keep the heat off of it...they didn’t have any work trucks in stock but the f150 that was the cheapest on the lot was silver.

I love black vehicles. Even though they get dirty easy, black is just the sexiest color to me.

Thats a very nice color.

If I upgraded my Sienna to 2018 or newer, it would be Toyotas toasted walnut pearl. A brown color of sorts. Otherwise I love UK blue. I would adore a beautiful blue vehicle. The toasted walnut pearl is my favorite.

I think the color of your car is important but I voted other as my color mood changes. Last year I bought a Colorado in Silver Ice Metallic. I liked it right away.
