Default Best color for the roadster?

If you guys had to do it again, what color would your exterior be? The interior? Which model?

Chrome Silver and Black interior - Track model

I actually did do it again. I went from Le Mans Sunset with a black interior to Pike's Peak White with frost leather. They are both beautiful in their own way. Ideally, I'd have one of each.

That was the color of my first choice Lemans with burnt orange interior, I think its such a unique color and not many out there.

Brickyard

But you'll have to have some extra cash to get it painted.

I actually did do it again too... Went from 04 SB w/BO seats to... 05 SB w/BO seats. One day I may buy another one (while keeping my SB), that one would have to be a Le Mans Sunset, unless they come out with a better color some future year...

Its all about SB on orange seats =D. Is this the most popular color for the roadster? Seems like there are a GRIP of black ones.

The roadster has to be black. super black with orange ventilated seats. The whole effect is striking.

Be prepared though that keeping a black car clean is more work than you would believe

Black does look great when clean and new but looking down the line, I've seen enough old black convertibles with soft top fade that made me go with Chrome instead (any top fade is less noticeable). If you keep the car clean and the top looking like new then black is a good way to go.

Personally, I love the Chrome look with my black leather interior, looks better than any other color when cruising at night and the street lights hit it. - just my opinion.

I have Silverstone which I like but iIthink a well cared for Super Black is the bomb. Redline and Pike's Peak are also great.

black look good but HARD to keep clean. I would stay with blue and orange ventilated seats or black seat.
