Re: Which Crossfire is the best colour?
Dedwards - When I saw your color it was in bright sunlight and I saw a lot of bright green flake in it, someone told me over the weekend it has a lot of blue. Whatever its a magnificent color, wish they had it in 05.
All you black Crossfire worshippers, I understand where you are coming from but after two black cars I needed a break, the Graphite is a bit easier to deal with.

OH NO!
Not ANOTHER color thread
!
We ALL know that, without a doubt, Aero Blue is the fastest color. Not to mention that, properly detailed & shiny, it has a tendency to reveal many hues depending on the way one looks at it. It is NOT (& I repeat) NOT a "ladies color". That's blasphemy! No one calls my car 'cute' & gets away with it!
That being said, I have to admit that the wife's Alabaster coupe garnishes many more positive comments than my SRT. Even slightly dirty hers will get many more ohhh's & ahhh's than mine (I blame the wing!).

I kind of feel like it decreases the "dog taking a dump" impression from some angles/distances....
Speaking of angles & distance.....has anyone else noticed that from some distances/angles the car looks ......odd....& yet from other angles/distances.....it looks like the most beautiful design ever created??????

If the dealer would've had a graphite roadster available I have a good feeling that's what we would own today. However, it's hard to beat a clean alabaster roadster.
Black is the all time best sports car color. I've had 2 black cars... I won't say never... but it will be a while before I venture that way again. Too much hassle keeping it nice and clean. Not to mention it shows absolutely everything... minutes after it's cleaned.

Re: Which Crossfire is the best colour?
Well...I'm not going to be trite and say the colour I have must be the best - when I chose my car it was the combination of the colour, the year, the condition and the performance that sold me - and I have Blaze Red (or whatever it is - metallic red).
I think my favourite is the graphite, and at first I thought I wanted the graphite with the cedar/ slate interior, but I think the brightness of the "cedar" would get cloying after a while. I'm pretty happy with the black interior after all.

In Philadelphia, they've got the blues. In Cincinnati, they've got — well — the reds.
Cincinnati is the top market for red cars in the U.S., while Philly buyers prefer blue, according to sales data released Tuesday by Ford Motor Co.
Sometimes, color preferences are logical. Buyers in hot cities, like Phoenix and Dallas, like white cars, while buyers in colder cities, like Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Detroit, are partial to red, according to Ford's internal data. No-nonsense New Yorkers like black and gray.
Sometimes, the preferences are a puzzle. Boston is the top market for both brown and green cars, for example, while San Franciscans like silver. In Florida, they like gold.
Silver remained the most popular color in the U.S. this year for the ninth year in a row, according to data released this month by Pittsburgh-based paint maker PPG Industries Inc. Twenty percent of U.S. cars are silver. White finished second and black was third.
