Yes i struggled, started on Orange moved to dark grey settled on white

 

[Ratzart]

Can't say I struggled to make a choice. When someone on the forum referred to the orange one as ginger that put me off it. I've had black before, nice when new and clean, rough when dirty or swirly in bright sun if washed wrong. White... Lovely in this car but where I live it doesn't suit cow manure stripes. The grey is beautiful as is the blue but my current car is red. Polishes up well, doesn't show up dirt too quickly but mainly the wife said...... Get it in red.... Lol choice made. Plus it is nice with red interior. To be honest it's a gut thing.. Go with how you feel. Edited by: Ratzart

Picking the colour was the hardest part of the ordering process... really couldn't make my mind up between Silver with the red leather seats/inserts or Orange, which I think the red interior would have clashed with. I was even unsure if the red stitching option would look wrong with the Orange car.

As I'd only seen the red in the flesh and I didn't want red (as a previous MR2 had been red), I really wanted to see the Orange 'in the flesh' before ordering. Luckily for me, the day of my test drive the dealer got an Orange with Leather & red stitching in the showroom and as soon as I saw it that was my decision made - It looks gorgeous.

Yeah think it will go down to gut feeling on the day, worse case if i regret the colour a year doen the line ill get it wrapped in something different lol

Not ordered yet - first test drive this weekend (hopefully - waiting to hear back from the dealer re availability)....colour choice down to 2 right now red or white.

I am concerned that the red will fade though. Every red car ever has faded.
I will never buy another black car - they show too much dirt.
Every other car on the road is either silver or black.
The ginger doesn't grab me - looks like a Z350 rip off.
I had a grey 205 - and who wants their car to match their hair?
The blue is a bit bland.

So it's down to White or Red. - probably White (although the ££ extra is steep).


If only there was a yellow or a green or a purple(!!!)

Buy a brz then

WR Blue

 

[Martin F]

Yes, this choice did have me struggling a few times.


IMO no colour looks as good as black when it's clean and treated with the right wax, but over the last week i've been drawn to both the silver and the white. I actually think it's the wheels i struggled with as i believe these suit the colours other than black best.



However after seeing a few more pics of black ones and seeing one in the flesh i went with it.

 

[Rarerims]

BRZ blue in the metal I was quite taken with, it's a really very nice colour!

My personal preference as car cleaning enthusiast is black, but I am one to clean the car each week and keep it well waxed.

Dark grey is very nice, quite sparkly in the right light.

 

[Speedymurr]

Orange (or IrnBru) is stunning in daylight and before silver then red can be the only choice.

All red paint DOES NOT fade. Only in dodgy 1980s Vauxhall Astras !

However ultimately the best colour has got to be the Subaru WRX blue. Those BRZs are STUNNING. My GT86 is on order, but I might have ordered a BRZ if I'd seen the blue in advance. Even though the delivery period is stupidly long at 8 months.

 

[Celica66]

i agreeSpeedymurr as i too may have ordered BRZ in Blue as looks fantastic but 8 months wait...NO THANKS...

 

[Keethos]

It was almost a straight forward order for me, always loved white cars and the GT-86 is no exception, though if they had a liquid yellow like on the Renaultsports I would jump on that, love that yellow and regret not getting it for my Clio. Would have liked to check out the orange but I saw a Aygo I think in the same orange (according to one of the dealers) and it didn't really standout as I thought it would....but then again it was on an Aygo

Y'see... this is what concerns me a little.I've ordered ginger based on the marketing/launch cars but having seen it IRL on typical Toyota dull cars I'm a little concerned now.

 

[Celica66]

i drove Orange one at Goodwood and Toyota T Wells have one as well ...does look a bit dull but think all will be fine when we actually get our cars as we will fall in love with them again and again

I'm relying on elbow grease, carnauba and dodo juice.

Look at this Thread and you may be a little happier???http://www.gt86ownersclub.co.uk/forum/its-here_topic375_post3669.html#3669

 

[Senna]

I too have been wrangling with this problem...
I drove the BRZ at the weekend but hated the ride and over-amplified engine sound compared to the GT86.
(I drove GT86/BRZ/GT86) But I do love that WR Blue...


Anyway in the end I concluded that whilst Blue or Grey would be nice, both the Toyota shades are a bit too dark IMO.


So it's Red for me...it's kind of a cherry red, and looks fantastic in bright sunlight!
