Don't mind it in silver and surprisingly red.
Well, mine's in Bluish Silver - only because the VTi-L's weren't available in Misty Violet last year when I bought it.
Ruby Red: Looks good, but to me it makes the Civic look like an old grampa's car. No idea why I think that, I just do.
Silver: Nice colour, but I'm seriously over pure silver cars by now...
Nighthawk Black: Not only does it have a cool name, it looks really good, sleek and gives the car a more prestigious appearance.... at a loss of some of the detail, especially on the front end, you can't see the curves easily and it "hides" the true shape of the Civic.
Sparkle Grey: Haven't seen one in the colour yet, which probably explains why the first iteration (Silver Moss) was canned last year - not very inspirational.
Alabaster White: Didn't like it at first, but it's grown on me. Only works on the VTi-L and the Sport (ie alloys, not hubcaps). Would work better if the grill wasn't silver, if I'd bought a White Civic I'd have the grill changed over to a black Mugen grill.
Misty Violet: Orginally wanted my VTi-L in this colour, but wasn't available at the time. I like it because it's different, unique. Not Grape Purple of the Falcon, this is dark and can almost pass as black. Very stylish.
Bluish Silver: Does anyone own an '06 Sport in Bluish Silver - aka, does the blue/white split interior look as cool as it does in the brouchure? I love this colour, it looks very slick at night under the glow of street lights, or just at dusk, the metallic sheen really takes the car to a whole new level of refinement and class.
My two cents.
Silver Moss = FTW
haha you guys do know bluish silver is a girls colour, right?
If youre going to buy one, buy it in black or white or dont buy it at all.
I usually would include silver as well, but this silver is not a good looking silver.
OK, grey is OK as well.
Night hawk black. but if i had the choice again i might go white.

The colours that take a serious downturn in looks once they leave the showroom (unless they are continuously cleaned) are black, sparkle grey, white and bluish silver.
The alabaster silver is too light for my liking, while the silver moss is just right but no longer available.
The ruby red looks quite classy, but seems to appeal to more mature drivers.
Younger drivers should stick to the black, or better yet, the CTR!!!!
The less said about the misty violet the better.
Nighthawk black is my favourite ;) and its not that hard to look after either, you just need to buy some quality products to keep it looking its best
Is the white = Championship White? if it is then CW is FTW, can put black bonnet or CF bonnet for future mod :) awesum
I let my GF pick the colour ;)Quote:

Ahh, that would probably explain why all the girls love my car, inside and out ;)Quote:

Oh and gumbel, unfortunately no the white isn't Championship White - it's Taffeta White (CW is a warm white in comparison, TW is more a glossy colder white).
No i dont, and no its not...Quote:
