...well, it IS the best color, you know.
This is probably in the sticky FAQ threads anyway, but here:

I've seen more Montego's than anything.

Mine was VR but it has been changed to Guards Red. I like the color red, it is a sighn of a true sports car. Not that sport cars cant be other colors YKWIM.

Cool, thanks for the stat! Personally, I'm tired of my VR. Most FD's I see are VR. I like something more rare, but I don't think I'm going to be shelling out $3k for a paintjob, so VR it is.

I've certainly sighted more reds here too, but it's the same few drivers each time. The MBs I see are almost always severly dented, each in a different place. It makes it easier to keep track of whether I've seen them before or not.
I actually bought my VR in SD. During the test drive we stopped for gas. At the carwash next to the gas station, there was a BB. So I know there's at least one there!
I've seen only one Chaste White. It was being driven by a woman on the 405 in bad traffic. It was a long time ago, and I didn't know they came in white at the time. It was quite a suprise.
