What is your favorite (available) Fit color?

Choosing only from the North American Honda Fit factory-available colors, and ignoring any limitations, based upon trim level, what is your favorite Fit color?

Feel free to choose a cross-border color (i.e., Americans can choose Alabaster Silver, and Canadians can choose Lunar Mist or Taffeta White).

I test-drove a Storm Silver, and (in my humble opinion) it is the most boring color I have ever seen on a car. It is the ultimate color if you want to go unnoticed. It has no depth to it and is completely unremarkable in any way. I would have preferred it if they had offered Alabaster Silver to the US instead. Even better would be if they went for the darker gray available on the '06 Civic. Also, I must say that it is a shame that the Lunar Mist is not available in the Sport Version. I might have considered that if it were an option. But I'm very happy with my Vivid Blue. The only things is that it shows dirt more easily. I'll just have to be good about washing it once ever 1-2 weeks.

I loved the blue, too, but pre-ordered the silver. Still would love to see Lunar Mist "in person". The blue was much prettier when I actually saw one. I am on the road so much that I don't think I could keep it up well, so Storm Silver was probably the best choice -- and I do love it.

I'm in love with my Lunar Mist car. I think it could only be topped by that mint green color the Jazzes get in other countries.

To me, Lunar Mist is kind of a girly color. Very light blue. It makes me want to put pink or lavender details inside.

I was intriqued by the coppery color of the Blaze Orange. I was tempted by it, but didn't really need the Sport model (or the extra expense that went with it).

Storm Silver would evoke a yawn from me. Every car on the road is some shade of silver or grey these days.

As I mentioned on another thread - the Helios Yellow (or the Indy Yellow that the S2000 has) would be great on the Fit. But I will take a white one (sigh)

Well, when I see a Storm Silver Fit, I think classy and refined. It definitely isn't a "hey look at me" color, like Blaze Orange or Vivid Blue.

Side note: salesman at my Honda dealer said that they're getting swamped with calls specifically for Storm Silver, which I bought on March 27 but had to wait until April 20 for delivery. They sold the black Fit, and even though a lot of people in Florida won't buy black cars, it went within 48 hours, as did red and blue. Orange was still on the lot as of yesterday morning. That was it for the first shipment. Seems like most manufacturers have a model of just about everything in silver, light or dark -- it is a classic color and I love mine -- but I'm glad there are other colors on the road, or it would be a boring place to be!

Since it's what I'm driving, Storm Silver is my favorite. I like the Lunar Mist, I wanted a darker interior (shows less dirt).

Well, Storm Silver (carbon gray) is one of the more popular color choices today. It's like the new Silver!

I voted for white because it hides the sport aero stuff the best, and is pretty easy to keep clean. I also think it looks nice. I am intriguid by the Lunar mist, but need to see it in person.

I like Lunar Mist, but too bad according to the build-your-own-honda site, it's only available on the base model.

It was a toss-up between white and blue, and I ended up with blue as that's what the dealer had available. Silver? I dunno . . . just can't stomach it, might as well just clear coat the sheetmetal.
