Best Color For A R33

[eightsixboy]

Hey guys, I'm looking at buying a r33 soon but don't know if i should stay away from the red and black versions?

A few black r33's i've looked have had paint which has either lost its top coat or has faded, 'looked at any red ones but i imagine them to be worse for fading.

Are the blacks and reds prone to fading or loosing there gloss? The silvers and whites seem to hold up a lot better from what i've seen. Any truth to my thoughts or am i completely wrong haha?

black is harder to keep clean,

red, once it starts to fade, is really noticable

Agreed +1 & black shows up more swirls > higher upkeep

Durability? > Silver unless paint is crazing - if it hasn't been garaged, White unless it's turboed & burning rich, Yellow - hmmmm

If you find any in great condition (inside 'n out) & it's been garaged, I'd take it, actually.

White R33 looks best, then Silver, then Black.

A jet-black R33 if kitted and modified right is sexiest! Period...looks farken tough...day or night...but yes...harder to maintain and I f**ken had those swirls or stains that are left over after the rain....I wash my car at least twice a week...but besides that...love it!

Dont ever buy red, fades and is a bitch, black is the ultimate colour, but again shows scratches and swirls etc etc easily, (also be forever be cleaning a black car... been there done that)

White IMO belongs on a camry, not a sports car.

If I had to pick I'd say silver, although it is a faily boring colour, it hides dirt well, looks great polished in eitherr day or night, and its a common colour and doesn't stand out.

If I had to pick a colour though to have a car in, Bayside Blue or Candy apple red.

Although if you are looking at cars... Paint shouldn't be you first priority

black or midnight purple

Midnight purple for sure , to bad there so hard to find.

I had a look at a white one just tonight, i don't mind the white, it would look good with some gold wheels but yea it is abit boring.

My missus's brother has a black one and itslooks insanely good, his has dark gold colored wheels and looks mint.

yeah black is best..but as said very hard to keep clean, see all little scratches and marks.

have to clean often otherwise the black fades to dirt lol ..but when its clean it looks mint
