Well it seems that White cars are rapidly coming back into fashion, spotted a very nice Benz coupe in white the other day and got to thinking that a white Ro would look quite smart, matt black wheels maybe? or do ya reckon a bit too 'Ricer'...

Anythings got to be better than godawful Silver.. (Yes I know I've just upset all you Quicksilver owners, but I think it's the most non-desript colour in the world, and currently the most common!!)

Not thinking of spraying mine BTW, but we got any Photoshop guru's on here could do a passable mock-up??

Yes Silver is very plain. Ive got it frown
Still the selection wasnt particularly vast. Red is too cliche, blue was ok, but now end of life colour. Black too dirty to quickly.
I wanted either Evoke or the new Karma colours etc.
There is a white HSV on ls1.com.au in the owners rides. Looks ok.

With yellow being the stand out colour for those with taste and style.

silver just means we haven't decided which colour we want yet

i think it's the most practical though even if it's not necessarily the most exciting !

Now look here, Silver is for people who just don't care anymore !!!!!!!!

Best Colour ever ... Doesn't show dirt, and somehow allways looks incredibly good when its cleaned......

I'm for bringing back chequered tape 2" wide only please, and contrasts excellently with silver.

Now let me find my medication

You make 2 points, both wrong. I have no idea what KAM means, and Yellow, as noted by Harry, is THE best colour.

Looks miles better in white...hhhmmm As for the purple, I was thinking quite a bit darker than that...

Something like this...but a tad darker even still, so that it almost appears black in the dark..

Cosmo Purple was an official Holden colour for at least the VY Utes



The White VXR8/VE looks ace but I prefer the older metallic colours from the VY ranges, Hot House Green cloud9
