I think to be honest, different colours do different things to a Coupe.

A yellow, red, sprinty or silver one really shows off the lines - especially the slashes on the rear arches, and the vented front bumper, whereas the darker colours like scots green, black, burgundy etc are more subtle, and more sleek.

Then there is Portofino...

I must admit a yellow coupe does draw more attention though, it really is an event driving one through town!

(when the f***ing thing works)

I think you are on to something to Alesi.

Different colours get different responses, be it sporty or classy!

I love my steel one as it looks timeless (but tbh the downside in that is that it also "blends" into the crowd rather too well). But I still ache for a broom. Even daydreaming walking home tonight thinking about getting a 2nd one. There's no way I'd give up the steel, but soooo badly want a yellow one. No suprise that the main advertising campaign featured that colour.

My wife has noticed blokes looking at her whilst driving my porto. I wonder if they think it is a macho colour

Its a ladies colour

I get the same reaction when fueling my porto up, its quiet nice your wife better get use to it

So am I a lady?

well no but i do think porto is more of a female colour, but thats just my opinion, paul had one so they must be a macho colour

am sure you look fab in your porto

I look fab in anything. I have been told I look fab in nothing too

will take your word for that

Some questions just shouldn't be asked...

too ture lol

Theory? far too many silver cars - A lot of people like that tone of colour, Modern colour, therefore make the coop look more up to date/newer, easier to keep looking clean due to hue/tone. My Vinci never looks "dull" it's always polished
I also like moon silver coops, sprint/metalic blue ones and broom yellow, a shiny coop is a good coop in my eyes. Murple ones though!

That's because your a bloke.
If you ever were to change gender you'd probably commit a murder to lay your lovely hands on a Murple one

Immaculate Black LEs look stunning. Definitely my favorite. After that Vinci Grey. Love my Moon Grey also then Electric Blue.

I still think broom yellow is the best colour, bit of a traffic stopper in this colour. Amazing how many people used to wave at me and smile, let me out of junctions in it etc, a special car in a special colour..love to track down this cars owner, i wonder how much yen it would be lol???

Theory...isn't Portofino Blue a shade of blue?

It's a shade of pink...

Not realy

I'm in that minority Until I went to view mine I had never seem one in the flesh either. Love it.

Personally, do not dislike any of the original factory colours - and the couple of resprayed ice white ones I have seen have been

Not much love for the inky is there,after three silvers it is the one for me./

I like the loud colours, the first one I ever sat in, was a sprinty in the dealership when I was ordering my broomy Cinq at uni. I promised myself one at that point, in that colour.

The broomy's look well too IMHO, along with red and electric blue. In its day the Coupe looked like nothing else out there for the price, and deserved the loud colours. Black looks well, but I think thats a colour that suits most cars.

Nearly forgot white too!

...nor pink, nor mauve, nor murple/purple. Depends on the make of your sunglasses. Personally, I would use Stevie Wonder's brand

Time to stick up for Porto Blue!



Looks

bloody

fantastic!

I have never been a fan of the porto, but those pics really do the colour justice! Good work!

Still not as nice as Sprinty!

Nice pics JKD
Just still not my fave colour I prefer car colours to be a colour, not some where imbetween. IMHO you should be able to know what colour a car is from about 20+ yards away, not still guesssing once it's passed you by. In the opposite direction of course

I love a good murple, and that is what those pics are of!

She sure looks good JKD

That does look great JKD but I think the wheels go a long way toward catching the eye, in a subliminal way, which makes it glitter.

Oooh...

My old car, she turned heads wherever she went
