I know I'm alone, but I really liked the Portofino Blue. Probably why I got one.

Its just such a unique colour, and if you park in a line of cars, the colour on its own just stands out as something special.

I'm not keen on the non metalic colours like red, yellow, sprint blue, moon grey or white.

If I could choose any colour, I'd probably get a dark metalic titanium colour, with a silver flip. (if thats possible)

Re: best colour for coop - 10/02/2006 22:38

i love the vinci grey......it's nearly as nice as steel grey or.......grigio steel as it were!


(can you tell what colour mine is? hahaha)
Posted By: Ed

Re: best colour for coop - 11/02/2006 10:37

Well that's an open question....
Depends what your after really.
It's a sports car so bright solid colours (red yellow, blue) are good...
If you want the car to hold its value then your after some of the rarer options. Oddly the aforementioned colours are v rare in plus guise, crono grey LE is the other rare colour.
beauty is in the eye of the beholder though, the coupé isn't that rare

Re: best colour for coop - 20/02/2006 23:25

<----- YELLOW!!!!

my coup kinda fell into my lap but if it hadent been yellow i would own a yellow punto GT at the moment the dealership had both in...both in yellow if the coup had been any other colour i would have not gotten it...i have wanted a yellow car since i was 14 lol, i suppose there are some things you never grow out of.

i have a feeling though that i will own another coupe proabibly Y reg 20VT plus and if it isnt yellow i would want a black/Vinci Grey/or that whiteish colour that changes in the light.

thats unless the alfa GT v6 drops in value over the next 2 years :P otherwise it is black/tan leather for me! yummy!

They look good in any colour but its hard to beat the broom yellow as long as you can hack the attention, i've really grown to like my ink black as it changes colour, sometimes looks greenish, dark blue, jet black,ash grey etc...i like em all, a pearl white plus would be nice though!

Solid bright colours are the best for the Coupé IMHO,with Sprint Blue at the top followed closely by Broom Yellow cool .

I think it grows. I had a Fiat 127 in something similar but it was really unfashionable at the time, so I couldn't plaster the contents of 50 or so Halfords Duplicolour aerosols over it quickly enough.
