Blackbery Pearl- too feminine?

After searching our local area I finally found a Fit Sport manual without a navigation system. My husband really wanted the bright blue but I found a blackberry.

I love it but I'm wondering if its too girly for him to drive (I get the Odyssey)

i ended up going with blackberry pearl, and bright blue was my first choice.

i see the feminine point, but what it boils down to, is that its really a cool color. One of my colleagues calls my M3 'urine' cause of the color. I bought it for me, not him.

OMG he called Phoenix Yellow urine?? hardly... haha

Blackberry is an awesome color! if i didnt hate black cars so much i'd prolly get one myself! (too hot!) honestly when i first got my Tidewater Blue alot of people thought it was ghey and whatnot but mostly people liked it. Once i lowered the car and etc. Everyone actually likes it alot now, If you're unsure when you get yours drop it and throw some nice wheels on

Blackberry pearl was my first choice, but it wasn't available on a base. I don't think it's feminine... at least not as bad as Tidewater blue or white. It came down to Storm silver or Blue Sensation for me, I went with Storm since it makes the base car look less base.

I went with the BBP over the vivid blue. I just liked it and had the choice of the two on the lot. At first I thought it was kind of feminine, and then I saw it at night. I love how it looks under street lights at night. It depends on the street light as to what color it turns. The white street lights turn it a deep blue, the pink-ish orange lights turn it deep purple, the yellow ones give it a color shifting from blue to black.

Personally Blackberry Pearl was my first choice. We ended up getting a red sport however cause that was a color my wife and I both agreed on. Ask your husband what he thinks.

i thought the bb pearl is a nice color. i dont think it's really "feminine" either.

i looked at the color and it has depth and kinda 2 character tone.

I looked at the BBP but then went with my go to color, Black. I do like the color, but i say that now... I just didnt want to regret it a couple years down the road and then be stuck with a "purple car". FWIW though, i do like the color.

I have the BBP and share it with my wife (we only have 1 car in the city). It's a great color and I haven't heard the girly comment yet (I've had the car 4 months).

my gf has stickers here and there so i guess she "girlyfied" it lol. plus she has the pin stripe from the dealer which is ew imho. i think the bbp would look sick w/ some stretched tires on some mack daddy offset chrome wheels.
