depends what your trying to aim at...
JDM or VIP?
my choices of colour if i were to go either way.
jdm - graphite, white, dark red or black
VIP - black or white
Graphite is nice! (all my cars are this colour.....)
I too like the White ones. They look real slick.
I love black cars, but could never own one. Too hard to keep clean.
you are too anal! :DQuote:

mate, you need a less frightening picture as the reflection from the flash makes it too distracting, take one during the day or something.Quote:

I think graphite is a nice colour for cl9...but its pretty common.
I have a ruby red which is kinda similar to graphite lol...according to me anyways. The red is pretty rare because it doesnt look as good on a stock car as the graphite, grey etc do.
It was initially difficult to accept the colour but it has really grown on me since.
buy any colour n repray it hot pink
Kandy Violet is the colour.... :pQuote:

Flick through this CL7/CL9 thread, get some ideas of what you want, after all it's going to be your car.
you have to put that into consideration
i normally wash my car once a fortnight...
with black.. you notice alot of dust
your going to be gangzTa!Quote:

I was gonna get White, then Black then Graphite....
The white didn't look as good as i thought, the black had HEAPs of swirls, and I thought I'd never get the graphite......but i did and im glad :D
might take long long time until im gangzTa... $2800 for 18" and $3200 for 19" (no tyres), but Work bling against Tempe/Ozzy bling... Work Wheels ftw!Quote:

Ill be a broke gangzta when I get there Daz. haha.
Sorry for the high-jack, back to the topic, like what others have mentioned already depends on the look your after, IMO light colour (white/silver in particular) is good for JDM look, can stick any type of wheels, polished lip+black/gold/chrome/grey, matt black, bronze, silver or you can go extreme and stick apple green or hot pink wheels?
For me, I bought a Lux so I will keep it lux, sporty vip if you know what I mean. Visuals for me (stock performance is good enough for me), thats why I got a black, simple, dropped+nice wheels.
That's me and my 2c.
If u r lazy like me, esp in water restricted area get a silver lol
or better yet.. build a stealthyQuote:

just remember JDM = cop detector :D no offence to all you JDM boys
trust me. get a white!
i just wish the sports/limited edition came in white!
but i still love my black :D
but my next car is definitely gonna be white hehe
if only the white came with black interior that would have been my choice
cream interior is not very appealing...
Another reason I got graphite.Quote:

Mmmmm, Black or graphite or silver would be sexeh i thinks.
Yeah, Work Wheels FTW......onli less than 1.5 weeks to go......**giggles**Quote:

i haven't been pulled over by a cop yet *knock on wood*, but then again my car looks pretty stock besides the black/red lip wheels, dark tints and single exhaust.Quote:

Don't let us boyaz convince you to go for something you don't really like.
Me neither.I have black,looks good when washed but hard to keep clean.I wash mine every 1-2 weeks.If you're fussy you'll be right otherwise red or graphite are nice too.Quote:

hey man.. mine is graphite.. and it's dirty the day after i wash it!! looks hot though
damn, you must drive in some mud.Quote:

haha so funny guys.
watever, i live in flemington which is alright but i dont have a garage to cover it up.
but i always take car of my babies and wash them every week or somthing
lol you can wash mine too every week,
i'll come over.
mine,i wash and vac every week... dirty the next day, no garage for me. blktwn to nrth strath every day on the m4, gets dirty.
yeh, i try not to take M5 to work cause within 2days i have a layer of smog dust.
Kellyville to Burwood.. no garage.. you're right QD, the M4 kills it..
I have a question for you guys.. i was lloking at these rims to put on my car.. what you think??
http://www.tempetyres.com.au/product...=&part_no=1486
identical to the mugen ones.
so many audi A4's get those.
they a nice if your going to roll your guards, some dude at bankstown has a set similiar to those.
but then IMO i wouldn't want to go to tempetyres.
The only thing that puts me off is buying from Tempe.. i've had mates who have had really bad experiences with them
heard they've given incorrect offsets etc, and tried to convince you they are correct, "they'll fit surely"Quote:

not sure,
i haven't had any experience with them as they haven't got anything i want.
but i think they seem friendly though.
oh ok cool
i've also heard the same thing...
tempe customer service is 1/10
however they have a massive inventory of rims
Just think of them as the MSY of tyres and rims. hahaQuote:

tempe is a production line because they are so busy. pay, fit wheels, bye. never again.
but those wheels are nice, i'd get them if you can get those wheels in 18 or 19s. 20's are too big and i dont want to bboss version. haha. who claims to be the genuine fakes and the others are the fake fakes... lol.
I've only heard negative reports from Tempe Tyres so my advice would be to stay away.Try Bob Jane up the road from them.Ask for Zac.I've had dealings with them.Good guys.Quote:

and boo you all black and graphite euros =P. Milano Red FTW. i should know i got one =P
but initially i was like akina, if sport came in white i would of got it
white on black interior = hot hot
though MR is hot =) red euro = euroR
yeh im choosing between a graphite and red. lol.Quote:

yeh im getting a graphite. just waiting for the seller to get all the service records from dealer. i wish he has them.
otherwise, im not really happy of buying a car without service history. right?
better if you have had a car that's got service history.
then you know whats been changed etc etc.
and when you resell people would want to know if you serviced it or not.
Hasn't the car got log books?
definitely with log books.. BTW sorry about the change in subject
LOLS!Quote:

But here I am, back again with a Graphite, sorry, Volcano Grey CU2. They just look heaps better IMO. :cool:
the seller actually has a log book but with no stamps on it at all.
but he thought the car has been serviced at honda dealer(i dont get him at all)
so i just want him ring up his dealer and get all the stamps done if he has.
Might be best to skip this car. Might not have been serviced at all! I never heard of any mechanic not stamping the book. Back yard jobs?Quote:

to skip this car. i might just go for MR one. same price. no bodykits. 15kms less. paint and leather protection and another 20mths warranty.
just wondering how much about to get aftermarket bodykits on?
replica mugen maybe?
or honda OEM ones
no please not another red euro.. if you looking into red go for blue...
easier to resell
thats another thread
haha mate i dont have much choice. my gf only wants white or red. graphite is after. so if i skip the graphite one becoz the seller doesnt have service history. i can only go red one. so sadQuote:

only white one on carsales is too much out of my budget mate.Quote:

If your missus is the one the car is for, then the red one sounds the go.
You'll still be happy you got a euro.
cash-in hand purchase any price is reasonable
white with red wheels!Quote:

so maybe i will pay $500more to get the red one
Red one seems like the better deal for sure.
yeh the red one i went to see. is really new, only 41000kms. has paint and leather protection. all honda services history. only thing is no bodykitQuote:

Replica ones are cheap. Less than $2k painted and fitted.
I haven't seen any '06+ mugen replica kits though?
