Whats up gang, im about to purchase my second FD, its been 9 years since I sold my first one!
I know its opinion but if you were in the market what color FD would you buy, either RED, SILVER, or BLACK??? |
Black. However, I would choose CYM if I had to do it all over again.

Sorry, but if you look at my posts and when I joined you'll see im a rookie, lol. what is CYM ? |
cym Is a factory yellow.
It all depends on what you want to do with the car. some guys want the rare color FDs because they are more valuable. I got me a red one because i got it at a good price. If it where my true choice i would have gotten a White or yellow FD. |
Out of the options above, I'd go silver with the red interior. In good condition of course. They're really good looking cars in my opinion. I'm all about the white FD though. ;)
|
I want a white one to start all over;)
|
My order would be (same as when I bought mine many years ago):
1. (BB) Black 2. (VR) Red 3. (SSM) Silver I like white and yellow cars, but I don't want to own one. I've never been a fan of (MB) blue, but an FD is an FD. ;) |
id probably get the newer 99+ blue mica, i think. its hard to say since the fd looks good in almost every color
|
Montego Blue!
but out of your list black. |
Pink!
|
I'd get the rarest color FD, which is Montego Blue
=P |
Once you go white your pants get tight.
|
When I bought my car, I made a list of colors I *didn't* want. Much easier to take it that direction.
The real issue comes with finding a solid, clean, quality FD that's in your price range. Color has to take a back seat to that. BTW, I have a black FD, and I do like how it looks, but keeping black up is SUCH a pain in the ass. Always looks dirty, shows tiny scratches and blemishes so easily....it's definitely not a forgiving color. Dale |
white :)
|
With those choices I would go Black, red then silver, I say black because if you ever wanted to go wingless it is the best color for it...
|
I have a black FD currently, my next FD will be white.
|
MB....
I may be biased ;) |
In this order...
1-silver 2-red 3-black |
when i was choosing a color i wanted
1st white 2nd black and 3rd silver i ended up with silver because it was the only clean one i could find at the time |
CYM. In person they look amazing.
|
I will go for black, of course. lol
|
I'm stock with red, and i'm not against it, draws a LOT of attention though.
|
Sunburst Yellow
|
silver
|
got the color I wanted, CYM. My Dream car.
|
Chaste white, but out of your list its hard to choose. If you're keeping it stock body, I'd go SSM. If you're going 99, I'd go VR.
|
black! the red factory paint is bleaching out a lot and really looks like shit after a few years
|
SSM or BB IMOP
|

If i had the choice it would have been white but the one i found was so damn clean and it was my 2nd choice black.
|
SSM- Silverstone metallic

Question is; what color do you want. That's all that matters.
|
1. VR (Red)
2. SSM (Silver) 3. BB (Black) ... but CYM is the most beautiful color, just like in the first Need for Speed! |
I certainly always wanted the SSM I have... the one problem with it being that it's tough to match silver if you want to touch up panels, or add aftermarket body stuff.
I'd love a CYM but it's not the holy grail to me as it is to some. BB/MB are cool, but particularly black hides the tail light design, which I think is one of the best parts. White looks great, but I don't like the factory white. It's sort of an antique/off white, and can look dingy. Shame. If it were more Porsche Arctic White or the factory Pearly White, it would be better. |
Definitely blue, so I am painting my 7.
Problem solved |
Given FDs are now 14-17 years old ( in the states) your best bet is to look for the cleanest FD you can afford and then paint it the color you want.
Though white is by far my favorite, I didn't repaint mine that color because I'm not a white car kinda guy. Instead I changed the original montego blue to 06 corvette yellow, not CYM (I'm just not a fan of that shade of yellow) . |
Montego blue w/ black interior
or Black on black |
silver black or white, montego blue can be thrown in also if it's in excellent condition, however as they are few and far between, one of the first three, I may also consider red again. I don't want a cym for what it's worth, I don't like yellow.
|
The FD looks great in any shade, but here is my list any way.
1.CYM 2.CYM 3.CYM Get my drift? ;) |

Very, very true!
|
like i said ill be purchasing withing the next couple months, i think im going with either white or silver. Love black but so hard to keep that color clean plus it does hide the rear cluster a bit.
Now the next step is finding one with a clean interior and a sound engine. |

Out of the colors in your list I'd go with black.
Out of all OEM colors I'd go with '99 spec Innocent Blue Mica...wait a minute, I already painted my car that color... |

FD3S2005, your FD is so clean bro, the chances of me or anyone finding a yellow one in that condition is slim to none. THats why im down to silver white or black. By the way is that original paint??? |
