Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

never thought I'd say this, but I actually like the white better.

I can't imagine what we will do when we have to give up our baby for a baby.

we have a 2 seater, never mind a 2 door! Chat Icon

The white. The darker colors look horrible when dirty. With a new baby, I highly doubt you'll have the time to wash your carChat Icon .

Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

I like the graphite pearl. My mother in law has this color on her accord...It looks really rich.

The white is nice but it shows dirt

Black - I am one of the people that wouldnt buy a black car. Probably because I know what a nightmare it is too clean a black car, and also that black shows everything

That's why I am leaning away from the black, but threw it in there just in case.
The graphite isn't that dark in person either, but I cannot imagine myself in a white car!!!

I have to go see them again....

Ha! A graphite just drove past my office!

This is what I have now, I wish I could get the same color, but I really can't be driving a stick with a baby.....or could I? Chat Icon

Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

I own the same car in Graphite pearl- I didn't pick it out- DH did since it was his car first. But I really like it- It looks really nice with tinted windows and doesn't look dirty that quickly.

Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

I have a graphite gray color on my truck and it's ok...but I'm so bored with that color.

You could get the windows tinted and that would look awesome on a white car!

And what's wrong with driving stick with a baby in the back?

I like graphite - not a fan of white cars

You can drive a stick with the baby, but the two doors would make getting the baby in and out of the car more diffucult.

Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

we got this car last year in graphite pearl as i love the color just about everyone see who has this car got the same color if i had to go back we would have definetly gotten black. however i do love white cars too takes alot to make them look dirty. so i would go either black or white.

good luck its a great car!!!

Re: Help me pick a color for my new car!

I am so partial to black- I just think every car looks so hot in black!
But I do admit it's a b!tch to take care of and shows EVERYTHING.
IMO it's worth it- but if you aren't into the maintainence- I'd go for the graphite.

It would be a 4-door in the blue, but I am not too sure about a stick with a baby, don't you think that would be a little insane?

I must say, I have gotten quite used to the automatic....Chat Icon

Why can't you drive a stick with a baby in the car?

Not only does my DH have a stick in his car..its' only 2 doors. He has a mustang GT and he climbs in the backseat to take her in/out of the car. It's quite amusing to watch Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

No, if you're comfortable driving a stick, then go for it. The automatic is nice and convienent though.

I guess it's stressful enough with a screaming kid in the back, and I haven't driven a stick in 4 years. But once I get back to it, it's like 2nd nature and not such a biggie.
I just don't wanna regret it.
