The crazy colours are cool in a crazy kind of way but you can't beat black and it looks the business on the 240Rs, any pics of a black cup?

Orange has been done, blue only looks good with a stripe and I did that, silver is getting old and could you live with kermit green?.

It is black old boy, highly polished, stealth aircraft, bat mobile black. The local dealer had a black one in recently and it was AWESOME.

mine's Black, it looks awesome. The only other colour I'd get, especially if it was a cup car is Krypton green, it looks mental, although I've been thinking if I ever needed a respray I'd have a type 72 Exige!

Black is awesome but beware, it's a motherf***er to keep clean. I'd go for gunmetal or a very lairy colour. White is also an option (laughing at myself now for 'clean' comment and then suggesting white!) that looks awesome on the Exige especially with black wheels, sidepods, rear wing etc.

Yep, I say if you can choose...take black or dark grey(gunmetalgrey?)
I hope to buy a grey one in Januar 2006 a supercharged exige cup

Look at Gooby's discrete 111r - actually the stripes really suit the darker blue!

Graphite is the way ahead. Looks great either clean or dirty. I'd love to upgrade to a 240 Cup in Graphite, just can't pluck up the courage to offer a semi-vital organ on eBay first.

My top 3 colours on the Exige (in no particular order) -

White (gives it a race car edge)
Black (stealth like mini Batmobile)
Krypton Green (lairy but cool)

All imho opinion of course!

For what its worth, may I suggest:

BLACK!

It looks the muts danglies.

Alternatively, the dark metallic silver with anthracite wheels does make a nice combo, but were I you, I'd be going for black

I want one, even if it has to be pink!

IMO it's a stupid car (in the nicest possible way) so it looks best in a stupid colour. My order of preference is:

1) Chrome orange (it may have been done but when did you last see one on the road?)
2) A lairy green (people are going to stare anyway)
3) Black (is that Satan himself driving!?)

Does look brilliant! I saw one with "silverstone" graphics on, looked incredible but was driven by miss daisy!

Ive been lurking for a while since ordering my Exige a couple of months ago. Picked it up last week and loving it so far, even in the icy weather!

Went through a similar colour dilemma of not wanting something too "sensible" on a car like an Exige but couldn't quite see myself in Green/Orange either. Went for the Purple in the end and am very happy with the result.
