Racing Bronze - yay or nay?

[ApexJimi]

As per title really, what sayeth thee?

I have one, and I admit it wasn't my first choice of colour but I went on condition after viewing so many lemons. However, since I've had the car, people who have seen it in the flesh have commented favourably, yet on the forums, it seems to be something of a marmite colour.

Pics are needed.

[Mr MXT]

I really like it.

[MX-5 Lazza]

Well I don't like it but who cares? If you like it then that's the most important thing.
Mine is red, I love it but you might not - that won't spoil my enjoyment

[Aizle]

Thanks for the pic, I like it.

Reminds me of the similar colour on a 350Z. As said, if you like it then who cares?

[ApexJimi]

I know Lazza, I'm just looking for a snapshot of opinion - it's nowt serious

Oh and vote!

[hornetrider]

[garrykiller]

Nah, marmite is a lot darker..

Its a colour that seems to suit a minority of small sports cars, 350Z and MX-5 included IMO.

[PlayersNo6]

I like it. Would have happily bought one in that colour.

[mk1salami]

Really don't like this colour, but each to their own.

[Gizmo!]

As seen on TG.

Not my favourite.

Japanese Racing Green FTW.

Did you get my email? It bounced back I think....

[iantek]

I would accept this colour if the car (secondhand) was mint etc etc but actively choose it new from the brochure at the dealership? No way!!!

SMALL? 350Z? Christ, is that what is considered small these days? They're huuuuuuge!

Back on topic; I never really care what colour my car is when I buy, I care more for condition. But the '5 is the only one I actually wanted in a decent colour - yellow or Jap's official racing colour, I got the latter, and I'm very happy with it. Except when it needs cleaning every 2 weeks......
