Sucks to me that when I bought my Gen 1 back in *'01 (damn keystroke error), there was no such thing as Magnetic Gray Metallic. It was exactly what I wanted, but didn't show up until Gen 2.5 days.

I also like the Blue Blitz Mica off the Scion tC, as well as Nissan/PPG Bayside Blue

I agree. When i got my 99, there was only solid black. It was the years after that that the black pearl paint came out.

Best colors ever. The monochrome colors work very well and appeal to me very much also. Black being my least favorite of the three but the other two are nice, makes your visual mods stand out more.

Especially silver on the Z's or a dark liquidy metal color, almost gunmetal...of course for the Solara DWP is the best lol.

That lexus color is sweet too. Starfire pearl or something like that. REALLY REALLY nice white color.

damn dude, that sh!t gets hot in the texas summers....i bet you're glad that the seasons are finally turning....

i drove a black car once.....never again (until i move out of texas).

i drove a white care once.....too hard to keep clean

i still think the FM Red is the best color for the lara...though i will agree with the person that said the lexus white (starfire pearl, i guess) is really gorgeous. i just don't know how it'd look on a lara.
