Euro Colour Choice......

Milano Red with EuroR kit + 18 rims would look bloody awesome. Definately worth considering if it comes with black interior.

Why is there no Euro R in Australia ?

I was told by my dealer the most popular colour is Graphite follow by silver and then blue/white, the least popular..you've guessed it ruby red.

I'd get white if it comes with dark interior instead of ivory.

There no R's in Australia part from the teg and the imported civics. Inconclusion Australian law sucks.

how bout one in every colour ey?

Seriosuly, they are all good so whateva one u choose, im sure its gonna look good.

1. Black :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
2. Silver :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
3. Carbon Grey :thumbsup::thumbsup:
4. Pearl White :thumbsup::thumbdwn: (if only it wasnt pearl but a bright white)
5. Blue :thumbsup::thumbsup:
6. Maroon :thumbdwn::thumbdwn::thumbdwn:

7. Milano red :thumbsup::thumbdwn: . Looking at the Tsx's in the states, the milano red is pretty poor. It just doesnt cut it IMO.
Especially with the acura design multispoke 17's. (im assuming oz will get these on the euro lux in 2005, rather than another design or type R rims).

The stereotype about black paint is o so true, its a b*tch to keep clean and with sydney's water restrictions its even worse.
Seems my car is a bird shit magnet (especially the sunroof, luckily the birds are only on target when it is closed).

Now about the ivory interior, i like it, when i was shopping around the woodgrain did bother me aswell, but now i kinda like it.
One thing though the OEM honda mats are fragile. I've got what could be described as a bald patch where my right heel meets the mat.

I definately wanted ivory interior because ebony interiors seem to make cars feel castrophobic for me.

Goodluck with the choice.

yeh i rkn! the patch where my left heel meets the match (to use the clutch) has worn right off...

the quality of the pile is really nice.....as is the "Accord Euro" branding, but honda should put a plastic/rubber pad where your heels meet the mat....(like subaru)

I think every colour is good except for Ruby Red :P

Black is the most classy, and Artic Blue is the most sporty, imo. Silver is boring (but not bad), and Graphite is like a dirty black (for those who can't stand the ivory interior). White is alright, but I prefer the Championship White (on the ITR) more. And white on white interior doesn't really float my boat.

I have a black Euro....no regrets. Artic Blue would be my next choice.

choice.

The base model comes with aluminium/metal like console rather than the woodgrain, right?

Is it possible to specify that on the Luxury version?

You can, but you'll be paying ridiculous amount of money.
I suggest you to forget about it.
After about 1-2 months, you won't notice it anyway.

Black is the best looking but needs a fastidious owner who washes the car weekly. Moreover, in the standard model the Black has velour interior that needs frequent cleaning to look good. It can also mark easily. If there was a Black on Black interior I would have gone for it (std model).

For me, Arctic Blue was the best compromise as it has the dark interior. I still get compliments on the colour 12 months after owning the car.

Silver is also nice and doesn't show up scratches as much as the darker colours. Premium white pearl is also worth considering and is the safest colour in the range from a road safety perspective.

You can't really go wrong -- not so sure about Milano red though.

I totally agree with you dude, I have recieved SO many compliments over the color, I took mine in to get a repair to the spoiler a couple of weeks ago after some stupid woman reversed into it with a bike rack... well the guy who did the repair mentioned how great the color was and what a nice car it was :)

The black looks good too, but the interior color choice is what threw me off, I like the black/chrome interior because it still looks sporty and nice. Don't like the Milano red color, I had a 2001 Civic that color and got sick of it after awhile, not only that you can only have the tan interior which reminds me of an old mans car... don't like it, takes away from the sporty look and feel.

I love the Arctic Blue, it looks great especially after a clean and polish, and is a good variety on all of the silver and charchoal Euro's you see going around !

What about Indigo Blue (I think only available for Luxury model). It's quite nice IMO, and the interior is black if I'm not mistaken.
