i've never done a poll thingy before so if i mess up then yeah no excuses haha.

i've always thought that titanium grey would be the most common color in rx8 land but now i'm seeing that the majority of the colors i've seen so far is definitely winning blue. so that made me think, what colors are actually out there?

so if you've gotten your car, choose what color you got. ONLY if you've gotten your car already. if you're "ehh i really like this color" then no...i wanna know what's out there on the road as of right now.

thanks!

 

oh come on i know SOME of you have gotten your 8's. you make your own threads about them!

 

yay people are voting...thanks guys keep em coming

 

let's keep this poll going so we can get an accurate rep of all the colors that are being bought. Come green lovers . . . chime in

Remember, VOTE only if you bought it and have it in your driveway. Alot of people are changing their minds at the last minute

 

So far no surprises for me:

Red most popular (flagship color, on the website etc)

Titanium Grey (the new black, the color of the decade, very popular, goes with the red/black interior nicely)

Yellow (hello!!!!!!!!! Do you see me in the new RX8!!!!!!!!!!)

Blue (xmen, flashy)

Silver and Black (classic but less popular as they are very common on any car -- 8 owners like to stand out)

Green (you hate it or love it . . . most prefer another color on THEIR car).

So my guess is going to be:
Red 33%
Tit Grey 20%
Yellow 14%
Blue 13%
Silver 10%
Black 7%
Green 3%

BTW: Yellow and Blue would be the overwhelming favorites if they offered matching two-tone interiors like red/black!

 

Agreed! Some pix of the yellow that way are reeeel nice. I could imagine the blue too. Good point.

 

I would DEFINATELY go for Winning Blue with a Blue/Black leather interior... but unfortunately that won't be a possibility, at least not on this years model. Maybe the 2005's will have more interior options.

 

The grey/black interiour would look really nice with many of the colors I believe as well. The grey/black interiour can be seen in the X-men car.

-JiM

 

I just got my grey with red/black leather. Very popular, everyone has seen it and like it, but yesterday when I got mine -- Holy COW!!!!!!!!!!!!

See it, sit in it, smell it. It is really amazing

 

I hoped you smelled the leather seat before you sat in it, not after.

 

It is not possible that we have only 83 cars picked up by forum member across America. Let's get voting please!

 

Moderators,
Can this be a sticky . . . just to get a nice accurate poll for those who want to know sales by color?

Thanks,

 

I picked the yellow. I don't think any picture does that color justice. I saw it in person. I usually hate yellow, but I was in awe when i saw it. I also saw the blue in person.

Both amazing colors for the car. I decided on the Yellow.

 

thanks rotorooter....yes let's keep this thread goin! i thought titanium would reign but i guess i['m wrong...but let's see!

 

Really like the reply from RotoRooter on colors

Fort Myers just recently received more RX-8's. I drove by the dealership tonight and saw a Titanium and Red one.

Seen

Yellow
Red
Blue
Titanim


all look nice so far

 

So far it really seems very close to my prediction . . . let's get everyone who already bought one's vote and then see

 

So far, this poll is far from accurate. I know damn well that there are more silvers sold then the yellow. I bet at least 3 times as many.

sunlight silver 11 10.38%
lightning yellow 12 11.32%

Hopefully when more are surveyed, you see a more accurate representation.

 

Got a chance to see the green up close and in good sunlight yesterday. Man I have to say, that it's a REALLY impressive color. If I had known how good it looked I would have been fine with it. It's a nice deep rich dark green and the metal flake in the paint really stands out in it. I think those who get it should be pretty satisfied.

 

There is a though that the silvers are not owning up to it. So please, if you chose the "new black", the color of the Millenium, please vote . . . don't be scared :D

 

Remember that a fair percentage of the cars on the road are alocated units. I agree that during our early polls, both Gray and Silver will well in the lead. I think people are buying what they have at the dealers. Just a thoery...

 

The poll is getting pretty close to estimates. Some think Silver should be more, others say Gray should be the best seller.

Keep voting, once you buy your please!

 

The results will be posted when we get 250votes. Keep voting if you already bought one

 

Color Poll? Do we really think that blue is the 3rd most popular color? Let's hear it from Silver, Yellow, and anyone who has already bought their cars.

Another question: Who would have considered white if it was available?

What other colors should be added next year?

 

Coo-ee All

Australia is starting to come on line. I picked my Winning Blue up on Wednesday (could have had it last week except for company paperwork).

I hope everybody is as happy as I am. I bet the Cops are grinning with pleasure every time I go past. Its so hard to want to drive this car slowly.

Come on Blue owners vote. Show them who picked the best colour.

Enjoy

 

yep titanium one I mentioend at the dealer is gone now and received a reply from someone on this site that went and got it when they heard it was there! I have to admit, after seeing it - wow, what a color. Yet to see silver, black, and green.

I thought about white (reply to would you get white if avail) and thought I would like it but I now realize that the darker or metallic colors show off the contour of the car better and not sure that white could pull it off. You would get a sillouette only.
