Cool Reason(s) for your color choice?

Why is (are) the reason(s) why you have choose your yaris's color?

I choose silver because it easy to clean, it never look dirty (even when it is lol) and all scratches look less "bad" on silver....my too cents

It's a classical color, always looking good, but not "special", look conventional

And you??

I wanted a sedan and the first 5 spd we got in was red. So I took it home, my old car was junk and I needed something asap. Otherwise I probably would have got silver.

I like solid non-metallic paint colour. My first choice was actually white, second was red. The dealer only had red in auto w/power package, so there you go. Red it is!

And you??
I agree. Please see left. In addition to what you said, I also think that silver is the generic/default color. It has both an elegant and a low profile at the same time.

Blazing Blue because I like it and it's rare. At my purchase time, out of all northern Nevada Toyota dealership's Yarii stock only 2 were Blazing Blue... my manual LB and an auto sedan over 200 miles away.

I think silver looks great when polished to a high shine.

Black LB for me. I looked and looked and thought black was the best color for the LB. Black hides all the panel lines and makes it look like one smooth piece of metal. (I don't like panel lines or pin stripes.)

I originally thought about Bayou Blue or Silver until I saw them on the street. The black sold itself to me.

Unlike my xB, this car actually gets cute comments!

I wanted white or silver to reflect the sun and keep the car cooler as much as possible. Got the silver one cause it was available.

Black was my first choice but I settled for the silver because I didn't want to wait for months.

i wanted a blazing blue LB at first because i think it's such a nice color, but i opted to go with a sedan. now, i wanted a flint mica sedan because it's a rare (imo) color that's not bland. there's color flakes if you look at one up close.

I wanted a flint mica sedan,but couldn't find a 5 speed listed anywhere within a few hours. I liked white in person so I bought it,and it was 1 of like maybe 3 sedan with a stick within a few hours of me. One of which wasn't an S model,so that left me with 2 choices pretty much in all of norcal. White or blue,never been real big on blue cars. I'm sure if I wanted a LB It would have been easier. I was tempted to get a silver LB that was on the lot. After my last car being black I am never going to buy another one,literally dirty 2 hours after a wash(lots of dust around here).
