Aren't red Nobles very popular?

[broad]

Whilst the pennies mount and Noble ownership comes a little closer I have started paying more attention to colours.

Now I have absolutely nothing against titanium, in fact I think it suits the Noble very well, but other colours suit it too - I am thinking blue, red, metallic red...

So whilst it will not stop me from buying a titanium one in a month or two i really think I would like 'another' colour. I am worried that when it comes time to sell would said 'other' colour not be as popular to potential buyers?

Or did Noble just get a v.good deal on Titanium paint??

Reds not that popular

Silver, grey, blue & black seem to be the most popular and with good reason in my opinion. Yellow looks AWFUL!

Did see a white one, which I quite liked

I feel a comment brewing in southern Spain

Can't think why red is not popular, its a pretty safe supercar colour

I've seen the red M400 at Mole Valley and a metallic red car for sale and both looked fabulous.

I know it's obviosuly all personal opinion and all that but I've never heard of a thing against red on a supercar - bizarre ?!!

I always think that the red looks fantastic in pictures, but not quite as nice in real life.

Are you after new or used? - if new remember that you'll save £450-ish for a flat colour like Red.

Please do not buy Titanium as they are "too common and normal" and people will ridicule you if you do!

Just buy blue - it's the thinking person's choice

Personally I think the only car that can be red is an Audi Quattro, Lancia Delta Integrale or a Ferrari - but then I'm biased

The good thing about owning Titanium up here in Aberdeen is that there is a distinct lack of Nobles on the road so any colour will do!

Brought a roundabout in town to a standstill today as a truck driver leaned out his side window to take a phone photo of the car whilst I was stuck at the same crossing.

Titanium seems to hide the stone chips better....

They are by no means hideous and the m400 in red looked nice at rockingham. To me mind, its not the perfect fit to the car though. I think you need very clean lines for red to work well, and on a plastic car it can sometimes exagerate the plasticness. All imho and dependant on the shade.

I beg to differ. Saw the pictures of a red M400 and wasn't too keen. went to look at the car (Cristopher Neil ex demo) and bought it there and then. i think it actually looks much better in real life than in photos. Also it's rare. The only ones I've seen are the one at the motorshow and the dealer demos.

Red sports cars are allways sold at a discount when secondhand. They are considered to be less saleable, too brash and BIB magnets.
It just one of those things.

Nice car Paul, but wrong engine If you're going to have a P4 it HAS to have a Ferrari engine otherwise it just ain't right... IMHO of course.

Go for purple mate. They all know it's the best colour really. None of them dare admit to themselves how jelaous they are !!!

[lucozade]

Joust is right blue is the best colour choice.
