What do you guys think?

Personally i think its amazing how much better the silver looks in Gen 3.5 as compared to Gen 3, so it wins biggest improvement by a landside imo.

In terms of outright best however i reckon its between Black and Blue. I really cant decide which colour to go for.

THe one might be buying this week is a blue one, its a minter. I think blue perhaps looks a bit more sportier!

A big shout out for red too - very ferrari-like!


Unbiased (as if!) opinions pls!! :)

I really like a highly polished red , but the blues nice. A nice glossy black coupe looks stunning until you drive through the first puddle. The white on the TSiii looks crisp and silver looks good even when its a bit dirty. My siii is silver, but being unbiased it has to be RED.

I liked the mix of colours on the Gen 1 ...sometimes on the same car!

Blue, but I'm biased. I looked long and hard for a good blue one, however there were no Yellow ones available

I don't think the Gen3.5 looks bad in any colour. Although I own a red one and am a fan of black cars over other colours usually, the blue is the best for a 3.5.

IMHO it has to be red, but as marky said, they have to be clean and highly polished or they don't look so good in red as they do in other colours when they're a little bit dirty...

I really like them in black and there's a metallic pale blue Siii that I've seen that looks quite nice. Also seen a gunmetal grey Siii that looks ok, it had red leather interior. I think the Siii in White looks pretty stunning

I like the red too but my bro already has a gen 3 in red so that rules it out automatically!

Black, nearly all cars look best in black.

Can't believe the difference between Hutchy's cars the black one looks like a totally different car to the silver one.

I wanted a black Mazda 6, but my boss has one and I thought he might try to steal it :)

i agree almost all cars look best in black as a rule

HOWEVER

there's exceptions. On a particular car with a special colour

I reckon the blue gen 3.5's is special. I think the white Siii's are special. White Audi A5's. Orange Focus ST's. Red Ferrari's lol

I am very biased
black is good but a paint to keep clean as it shows every fingerprint even when youve just cleaned it

I have to say im a huge fan of the blue 3 and 3.5 mines 3. as soon as i saw 1 i was adament i wanted one, first of all i had to get a years NCB to get insured on the 2.0 then it took my 8 months to find the right 1.
but i do love Siii in white looks stunning! as do most new cars in white, audi a5 being the car i want next in a couple of years doubt ill ever get a white one though!

To be honest i think youd be happy with any colour. when i had my "ocean blue" gen 3.5 i thought, and was very adament that this was the best colour to have, but now i have my black one, i think black is better cus of how sleek and sporty it is. but i think each person thinks there colour is best cus its what they come to love!

white looks stunning on that but not a fan out white cars generally. (prob too many white astras ruined it for me!) blue is far and away the best colour but if im being unbiased......its still blue!!haha red or black are stunning too, more so when shiney!

just bought a silver one and love it. Last 4 cars have been black so wanted a change. Problem with black is any mark or tiny dent shows so much more. Looked at quite a few and all had marks. My silver one was spotless so had to buy it.
Did want the blue though ! so I'd say blue, then silver then black. Dont like red much, sorry !

It has to be red. However there is a problem, the car can be spotted a mile off so if you commit a traffic violation the police can pick you out very easily, particularly on the autoroute in France. - Believe me.
