Reason(s) for your color choice?

[Trish]

Why is (are) the reason(s) why you have choose your yaris's color?

I choose silver because it easy to clean, it never look dirty (even when it is lol) and all scratches look less "bad" on silver....my too cents :tongue:

It's a classical color, always looking good, but not "special", look conventional :frown:

And you??

[jdium]

Blazing Blue because I like the color, simple as that...

[ToyotaTEch21]

I wanted a sedan and the first 5 spd we got in was red. So I took it home, my old car was junk and I needed something asap. Otherwise I probably would have got silver.

[dartt]

I've got a Jade Sea Met 4D... it's the last piece!

[kimona]

I like solid non-metallic paint colour. My first choice was actually white, second was red. The dealer only had red in auto w/power package, so there you go. Red it is!

I agree. Please see left:smile:. In addition to what you said, I also think that silver is the generic/default color. It has both an elegant and a low profile at the same time.

[brickhardmeat]

because white is right

[BailOut]

Blazing Blue because I like it and it's rare. At my purchase time, out of all northern Nevada Toyota dealership's Yarii stock only 2 were Blazing Blue... my manual LB and an auto sedan over 200 miles away.

[uncleyaris]

bayou blue, looks different depending on the light it gets. besides that Jimcat green was offered here!!!

[black2yaris]

Black is where it at ! Add the pearl metal flake & it's a Killer color ...

[keesue]

I think silver looks great when polished to a high shine.

[woof]

Black LB for me. I looked and looked and thought black was the best color for the LB. Black hides all the panel lines and makes it look like one smooth piece of metal. (I don't like panel lines or pin stripes.)

I originally thought about Bayou Blue or Silver until I saw them on the street. The black sold itself to me.

Unlike my xB, this car actually gets cute comments!

[foober]

I wanted white or silver to reflect the sun and keep the car cooler as much as possible. Got the silver one cause it was available.

[Violin]

Black was my first choice but I settled for the silver because I didn't want to wait for months.

[landrym28]

I have a black sedan...and I thought it looked cool, so I got that color.

[Kaotic Lazagna]

i wanted a blazing blue LB at first because i think it's such a nice color, but i opted to go with a sedan. now, i wanted a flint mica sedan because it's a rare (imo) color that's not bland. there's color flakes if you look at one up close.

[black2yaris]

I have a black sedan...and I thought it looked cool, so I got that color.

tha's a Way Cool color on yer car .. Black is where it's at

May all yer mods be dark @ Club Black

:wink:

[Motorhead6T5]

I wanted a flint mica sedan,but couldn't find a 5 speed listed anywhere within a few hours. I liked white in person so I bought it,and it was 1 of like maybe 3 sedan with a stick within a few hours of me. One of which wasn't an S model,so that left me with 2 choices pretty much in all of norcal. White or blue,never been real big on blue cars. I'm sure if I wanted a LB It would have been easier. I was tempted to get a silver LB that was on the lot. After my last car being black I am never going to buy another one,literally dirty 2 hours after a wash(lots of dust around here).

[Kaotic Lazagna]

hahaha, i've had a black car, a white car, and now this flint mica.

[nqd]

Red because it stands out

[static808]

black sand pearl because, as someone mentioned earlier, pearl flakes on black is the shit. most black cars are metallic, but this one pearlescent. i know, i know, black is the hardest color to maintain (scratches show the easiest, dirt shows up the most, etc..), but have you washed and detailed the liftback?? it takes less than 20 minutes to wash, and less than 3 hours for a full detail job (wash, clay, rinse, paint clean, polish x 2, sealant x 2). when clean, black is the glossiest color...

--B

ps: no surprise, for our van, which is WAY harder to clean/detail and keep maintained, we chose white pearl, which hides dirt and scratches like crazy...

[Pars]

Another vote for Black. I wanted color coordinated side-mirrors without having to pay $2500 the RS model.

5 door model does look upscale in black, even though it's riding on hubcaps and 14' wheels.

[eTiMaGo]

Wanted white (I still think it is the nicest color on the LB), but over here it's only available with an automatic transmission, and I had to have a manual... so, it just had to be red, but I strongly considered the dark metallic blue that is also available here, very classy.

[Bidoup]

I wanted Blazing Blue but the salesman told me It would took 2 month to get one so I went with Bayou blue.

My first car was blue and I always loved that color for a car.

[landrym28]

The color that I definately wanted to avoid here in Canada was that olive color Yaris :barf:

[SeansGirl0604]

I wanted Bayou Blue but I also wanted the LB. I have a white one because it was the only liftback available at the time I purchased my car and I had to fight for it. It was off the truck for less than a few hours before my sold sign was on it.

[bigdoglover]

i have the red lb-she is cute in red imo

[death is my gift]

I didn't go to the dealer for a Yaris. I went for a used car just to lower my payments and ended up driving out of there with a new Yaris Liftback.

There were only two colors with a manual transmission. Bayou Blue and Red. I prefered Red over Bayou Blue.

[MrMondayNite]

I wanted Blazing Blue, but I also wanted the power pkg more, and that combo wasn't available at the time so I went with the Meteorite Metallic.

[derrick452]

Wanted a white S Sedan but settled for a Nautical Blue because I just couldnt wait. The colors growing on me too which is cool. Just gotta get some new wheels and lower it.

[RS07]

Black... When clean, is CLASSY

[kurokoma-kun]

I just thought black looked the best, made a special trip to get one!

[steved]

I wanted the Copper Orange Mica but I would have had to wait for over a month to get it. So I went with the next best color RED.

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

i checked color production as far as percentage produced and had to go with the BB.....

[ExocetCom]

I chose black, and waited for one from the factory, because if I was going to get a small 3dr car I wanted it to be rather badass. I'm waiting for another month or two before I get the tint done, but it should be fun.

[sherryberry]

i wanted the blazing blue cuz I have always wanted a true blue car. I had a nissan sentra that was blue a while ago but that was more of a blue-green to me more than anything and I love that blue color. plus, it's my fave color so there you go.

[aca72]

First choice: Polar White (068)
Second choice: Silver Streak Mica (1E7)
Third choice: Flint Mica (1E0)

Availability at the time of purchase:
Polar White with A/T
Silver Streak Mica with M/T
Flint Mica is not available

In the end, I got the Silver Streak Mica because its M/T :thumbsup:!
M/T for fun!

[paradigm]

I like the white/black contrast with cf and tinting windows. Plus with a neutral color i feel like i have more options when it comes to wheels.

[Trish]

I agree. Please see left:smile:. In addition to what you said, I also think that silver is the generic/default color. It has both an elegant and a low profile at the same time.
So true!!! But that didn't save me my 700$ and 10 pts tickets lol......
because white is right

Blazing Blue because I like the color, simple as that...
They don't have it in the sedan models

I have a black sedan...and I thought it looked cool, so I got that color.
It looks sooooo coolll!!! There is not too much of it on roads too...
Red because it stands out
lol yeah but the red HB and the red sedan isn't the same...
The color that I definately wanted to avoid here in Canada was that olive color Yaris :barf:
Hahahah so true....that color is too weird...
Black... When clean, is CLASSY
Yeah but it's hard to keep it clean...:tongue:

[joe keeney]

Bayou Blue that what she told me.

[aerock19]

Polar White (I've owned both a White Liftback and now a White Sedan). It's like the only color they ever have at Northridge Toyota in California! I really wanted black, but I've settled (and enjoyed) my Polar White Yari.

[brickhardmeat]

you know what they say about black....

[Irishlass]

Red is my favorite color. If I was buying a new car (and I did) I wanted it to be my color of choice!

[slvryaris]

Mine was either silver or white because that was the only two S Sedans that came to that dealership.

[Pars]

you know what they say about black....

They've got big side-view mirrors that are color coordinated?

[Angry Andy]

Nothing looks better than black when she's washed and waxed. Nothing.

[fnkngrv]

I thought that I was "stuck" with my Jade Sea Metallic when I got my S, but I be damned if I didn't fall in love with it when I fist saw it in person....I was going to order a Flint Mica, but seeing as how they don't even sell the S in New England I have been told I took what I could and have no regrets AT ALL!

[Led_Yaris]

I got Blazing Blue, there are several Toyota dealerships near me but only one Yaris and it was the blue beauty that i have named it Page (after :bow: Jimmy Page :bow: because calling it Jimmy would be alittle strange because im a guy.) I love it because there are red and black cars everywhere but not alot of bright blue cars so it stands out more. Blazing Blue is awesome end of story! :headbang:

[fainty_girl]

Cherry red - I absolutely love the colour, and would have gone to a different dealer if my red hadn't been in stock.

Red also stands out too and it looks beautiful when its all clean!

[pp.sweet]

My dealer only had the Hatch in red..but I think it's HOT!!! :evil:

[Rain]

who else thinks that jade sea is gay? lol. seriously.
i think the color is in between being a girly color or something.

anywho, when i first saw it in the lot i was like.. "no way! not getting that"
i really wanted the bayou blue one BUT it was freaking in demand here and I'd have to wait to get it. I was getting in patient so I tried the jade one. lol. as if trying it would change the color but yeah, i love my baby jade.

[vitzwantone]

My is metallic light green.

Green is not really my colour, i wanted Red, it really stands out. Though,
the dealer only have silver and green and the silver is 4wd, so i get the green

But after a few days of owning it i can't help thinking, green is such a clean colour. Melallic green looks like gold in a sun light. The longer i own it, the more i love my colour. And it so uncommon, not many people drive a green yaris LB. I've never seen one, my was imported from Japan.

I don't know, i just love my car :wub:

[WolfWings]

Silver here. Bayou Blue was my other choice, wanted something pale but NOT pure white so it wouldn't show road-grime just from driving to the gas station, but light enough it wouldn't turn into an over in the summer.

[BluYrs]

First though about getting a Bayou Blue one, because the colour slightly switches its tone depending on the angle and lighting. Didn't want to get a black one, because although it looks great when clean, it shows even the slightest layer of dust on it and you have to wash it often to keep it looking good (my last car was a black mica Mazda 323F BJ). Bright red seemed just wrong for an econobox- that colour's best left for Ferraris and firetrucks. Other colours just seemed bland.

So eventually I got the Sea Spirit blue Yaris (similar to Blazing Blue) and I'm really glad I did. Looks great and although I don't have to was it as often as a black car, it still needs washing often.

[matlanticus]

I have Tampa Bay Lightning License Plates and my new Blazing Blue Yaris matches perfectly.

[Ferret_san]

Because WHITE is POWER.

[eijikikimaru]

I had no choice...I needed a car that day... grey was all they had in manual :cry:

SO just worked w/ what I was given

[DeliciousYaris2007]

Because I'm a "brand new car" noob, lol. And I figured it'd be the easiest thing to find decals for.

Not to mention, everyone I talked to told me not to choose black, which was one of the three options I had -- Black, Red, or White. Bah.

[Jem_hadar]

Went with bayou blue because it was a different colour of blue than you usually see. A more interesting/non-standard blue. And I thought that the bayou blue would look nicer than the blazing blue when I tinted my Yaris's windows.

In hindsight though, I REALLY wish I'd gone w/ white... its one of my favourite colours these days, and I saw my buddy's new Civic which was all pure white 1 month later and it really made me wish I'd decided to go w/ a white Yaris :(


Oh yeah, or I'd (now) love to have chosen a RED hatchback for the Mord-Sith factor.... it would have been SO APPROPRIATE!!! :) :)

[landrym28]

I'm not a fan of white cars, but a white Yaris actually looks pretty cool.

But I have a black yaris! :tongue:

[SurfBabe900]

I got the jade sea yaris, (although it is more seafoam than jade but anyway), because i like surfing and its the color of water...in some places and it just fit me so well!!!
but at night it looks silver. hmmm.

[ern-diz]

my 2 cents?...black; cause i thought it looked a little meaner...lol...the car is kinda small and although i new i could do some nice things with it i figured white, blue or red wouldn't be as agressive, which is the look i'm going for...:thumbup:

[PolarWhite]

Wanted the polar white and nothing else. White doesn't show fading and scratches like other colors. Had a red Toyota pickup in the past and it faded like crazy. I also knew white would look good with tinted windows.

[jenarae]

I've always wanted a charcoal car! :thumbsup:
Or in the Yaris world, Flint Mica :tongue:

there has been talk in various threads of the yaris having issues with paint chipping in the front due to thin paint application...i'm thinking black does better against this kinda thing than white but, just my opinion :smile:

White, for the clean looks, maintenance and are more statistically safter.

but if black chips away, considering the metal/plastic below is usually black from the factory (at least my civic was), u think you'll be able to see it as bad?...i'm always tryna keep my car looking new lol...

[kurokoma-kun]

My black paint has very few chips, and I put 9000 miles on it in 5 months! Those it does have were easily touched up with matching paint pen.

I do have a ding on edge of door that will NOT stay covered up however--no idea why, it's white underneath too. :frown:

[sherryberry]

ya it's not black underneath.. it's white.. i kinda dinged my driver side door a little bit.. lil white specks are now there instead. but it's barely noticeable.

[cute_lil_yaris]

When I was looking for my new yaris, I needed it asap and the only thing they had arriving to the dealership with the manual w/ power option that I wanted was the white. They did have the blazing blue (which I ABSOLUTELY loved!) But it didnt have the power option. =( So white it is!

I thought about black also, but it gets TOOOO HOT here in Georgia during the summer to have a black car.

[cute_lil_yaris]

there has been talk in various threads of the yaris having issues with paint chipping in the front due to thin paint application...i'm thinking black does better against this kinda thing than white but, just my opinion :smile:


so very true. :frown: And those stupid bugs splattered across the bumper and hood are more noticeable on the white. But I still Love her! :wub:

[ern-diz]

so very true. :frown: And those stupid bugs splattered across the bumper and hood are more noticeable on the white. But I still Love her! :wub:

i don't know anymore...i've been told in other threads that unlike my old honda, the yaris is white underneath the paint so, if my black chips away i'll have a zebra/cow thing going :cry: ...in addition everyone says black flakes easier/quicker than white...IN ADDITION to the heat :evil: ...my tint and sunshade help but it gets warm and i'm in cali no less...

small price to pay for the evil look tho i guess :smoking: lol

[Ausyaris]

My daughter chose black as she has never owned a black car.
Her two sisters and myself have had black cars. Black cars do get hot, with high temperature and high humidity in Queensland, but with air conditioning, good window tint and becoming expert at finding shaded or undercover parking it is bearable.
She expects this car to be more economical than her 4x4 (now sold) or her husband's highly modified V8 ute and V8 station wagon. I think her expectations may be exceeded by the Yaris.

[Black Yaris]

cute_lil_yaris... where are you in GA, and why didn't you come to our ATL meet?

[Wine]

i choose metallic blue becuz i have no choice....and i like this color

[eijikikimaru]

Question about the black paint cars

When it chip they say it's white...is that white the primer or the actual bumper color underneath all that paint????

[cute_lil_yaris]

cute_lil_yaris... where are you in GA, and why didn't you come to our ATL meet?

Im a few miles south of Savannah.

Up until now, I have been EXTREMELY busy with college, graduation, taking the registry to become officially a radiologic technologist, and starting my new job that it was impossible to squeeze in time for a trip to ATL. Especially since its like a 4 hr drive from here. Maybe next time gadget! :biggrin:

Is there going to be another one sometime soon?

Question about the black paint cars

When it chip they say it's white...is that white the primer or the actual bumper color underneath all that paint????

That's wierd if true. Under our pacific blue it's black on the bumpers.

I prefer silver for looking clean and showing marks the least, but we both agreed that pacific blue looked best in our opinion on the yaris sedan. I don't think there's a colour which looks bad on our cars either.

I wish it was a little more silvery like the mercedes blue, but it stays surprisingly clean looking compared to other colours and doesn't get nearly hot as my first car which was black with no a/c.

[Zute]

Absolutely Red!! Because Toyota makes a red that truly looks red!

[YarisGirl82]

Meteorite Metallic, and I agree, it's easy to keep it looking clean, even if you haven't washed it in months. My husband has an '04 Pathfinder that's silver, and we've gone months before we asked eachother "when was the last time we washed it?" One good rain, and it's just like new! Plus, I want to blend in, not stick out, the 5.0 look for those who stick out... Plus, the scratches don't show anywhere near as much as one the solid colors, and RED is an anxiety color for me, I get stressed out just looking at red cars. No offense to those of you who like it, It's just a little much for me.

[parts_oracle]

Blazing blue because that's what my husband brought home for me :smile:

[Dess]

I got a Pearl Black LB because I actually got to pick! The only car I've ever had (for the last 5 years, damn station wagon!) was Blue, and I've always wanted a black car ^.^

[jamal1984]

My is Black because i hate to see my car shadow next to another clean wax looking black car.
Black will look good with any Window tinting Percentage. It's even look good with mirror tint or two tone tint.
It's can help em girls adjust their clothes when they pass by my car.

[Masteraal]

black...i wanted to make it as manly as possible!...no lie :tongue:

[maryinredding]

We live in Redding and it gets VERY hot in the summer. White is the best color for our area. The paint will last longer hopefully.

[Typer73]

Meteorite Metallic--doesn't show the dirt or scratches as bad as the darker colors. Didnt' want white 'cause I had a white car for 14 years before the Yaris & birds seem to target white cars ;) Didn't want red (though I love red cars) 'cause I've wrecked every red car I've owned, Black is too hot in the south and figured I'd get bored of the blues too quickly. And the green is hideous!:barf:

[smokinyaris]

POLAR WHITE= SIMPLE,CLEAN,SMOOTH AND ILL...........................

[solarVitz]

i got blazing blue cause ive never had a blue car before. and blue was my true favorite color.

[Ryu]

Copper Orange Mica, because it is unique, bright and the most importantly I like it.

[adamschneider]

I wanted a real color: not black, white or gray. So it was down to red or one of the blues. I got Bayou Blue because my wife's car is already red, and I thought the Bayou Blue looked a little classier than the Blazing Blue.

[jmharn]

Barcelona Red with light interior...because my brain is preconditioned by the ads of the 4-door sedan...most of the time is shown as Red. I love it. It's very shiny...wife loves it too...so one less battle.

[jmharn]

Is someone taking a poll/note on the colors? I think it will be interesting to see what is the most popular colors for the LB and the sedan.

[xed]

I've ordered my car but I haven't received it yet. I have "paint issues" with my current car (96 Civic) so that greatly effected my decision about what color to go with. My Civic is forest green and trying to get a proper color match for repair work is really difficult because of slight natural fading that just happens over the years. Basically I got factory matched paint but that doesn't help that it's slightly lighter than what it was when new.

So here's my reasoning when I ordered my Yaris.

- All colors other than black or white are off the table because I don't want to deal with paint matching issues ever again and I dig black and white cars over other colors anyways.

- I live in coastal NC and it gets very hot and humid during the summer and we have an insane amount of pollen around here. That crossed black off the list right there.

- White will hide dirt very well and all the little scratches that are bound to happen should hopefully be minimized on a white car (I hope). Also, white with black tinted windows does look really good.

[Trilixia]

Black Sand Pearl... it came like that since I got the car used with 10k miles. Almost bought a used Blazing Blue.

If I had a choice, maybe polar white...

[Thai_Dang]

I chose meteorite metallic aka silver, because it resembled luxury to me and makes the car look more expensive. Lol even though its just a yaris not a lexus. Second choice would've been black, black looks very cool. Blue/red made me think the yaris was an RC car.

[tomato]

Red, because it looks like a Tomato.

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Fint mica because it's just awesome!

[bkndacn]

I got my Bayou Blue because it was the closest color to the color of my eyes! lol

[SilverBack]

Met. met because it's not a loud color, so keeps cops off my radar a little less. Would've gone with black too if it were not for the blazing hot Summers here

[RedHatch08]

Absolutely Red.

... because I bought used and that's how it came. Didn't really want such an attention grabbing color, but the deal was too good to pass up.

[brg88tx]

barcelona red metallic, because i got a killer deal on it used. i was looking for a white or grey one, but the red is really nice looking and has grown on me.

[STC]

I chose Bayou Blue color because of its hue, therefore; its ease to find or spot in a crowded parking lot. The blue is not too bright and metallic, and yet not too bland and dull... IMHO :smile:

[127.0.0.1]

red ones go faster

['LilRedYaris]

I chose to get a Barcelona Red Metallic sedan mainly for more visibility on the road. I didn't want people not seeing my little car and accidentally running into me, as happens with a lot of dark grey, silver or darker colored cars. It also helps that it's a pretty classy color in its own right, and I really liked it.

[bkrownd]

Mine was the only manual hatch on the lot. At least white is cool in the Sun.

The Barcelona Red really is classy looking

[ChilliwackGuy]

I chose Mica Silver (the dull silver) for my 2010 Yaris HB - so it'd match my wife's 09 RAV 4 LTD V4 - that way we could switch cars and people wouldn't notice too much (surprisingly very few people realized we had 2 diff cars!)

[ERA]

zephyr blue.

cause its awesome. and i guess no one else seems to have it.

plus ive got a red supra, tired of red lol.

[wooverstone8]

I purchase a red Yaris, so it's more visible to other drivers.

[rye7jen]

Flint Mica FTW!!!

[matanfr]

i chose the silver.we had a "moussy silver" that looks like light grey that i also liked, but i wanted the blue yaris!! :cry::cry::cry:
the dealership told me that the blue color won't be imported to Israel in this specific model with the multimode or manual transmission with 100 HP.. :mad:
People who bought the 87 HP yaris a year before me could have a much larger color choice.

[2009BBPliftback]

It was either Blazing blue or Black sand for me. I picked the blazing blue since its makes the car look more fun and cheeky. I think cars like the yaris should include more "loud" colors.

[derickveliz2]

.

Love the white and fint mica (Dark Gray), but I just feel that the Sedan "S" shows more of it's lines in Barcelona Red
It sucks under yellow/orange street lights Though!

Fint mica because it's just awesome!

If you look in the lower right corner of a post two blue boxes say "edit" and "quote"
that shade of blue is the color of my 2010 Yaris.
I chose this color because my 1998 Honda, Civic was gray. There were so many gray cars on crowded parking lots, I always had trouble finding mine.
Nothing is more embarassing than having the security guard drive you around the parking lot to try to find your car. It happend to me once or twice.

One good reason to have the keyless entry system. I can hit the panic
button, and hear my horn blasting for a few seconds. Or, if I know I am
close, I can hit the lock button to have the lights flash once. :tongue:

the only sedan on the lot with a/t and power package and was silver... go figure...

[Idahotom]

I got white, and as I bought used I had to look a while. I got it, and the windows dark tinted, because it looks cool, literally and figeratively! Doesn't fade, and covers the dirt pretty much.

I havn't heard any mention of visiblilty issues in a color choice, and by that I mean other drivers seeing you better. Maybe with the daytime running lights not a big issue? But, I seem to remember some study done years ago, don't ask me where or when, and it showed silver was a color involved in lots of crashes

Silver 1E7 color of champions

[SimTronik]

Had Flint Mica, love it but come dirty easely. Crashed it last winter.
Since i crashed i decide to choose a color i'd never get bored.
So i now have a Silver 1E7.

But i like dark colors cuz i think it makes the car more "sport"...

Got Meteorite because it looked like a more expensive paint seen on more costly cars.
The only red they had was a bare bones 5speed.

[sickpuppy1]

Mediterranean Mica because I've never had a red car before and at the time I thought it was destinctive. I now see a bunch of Toyota's everyday in that color,lol I still like it . Everytime I come outside I think, what a cute car.

White coz the other colours I liked would've cost $450 extra. :thumbdown: Metallic and all that..

I'm a private investigator & wanted the least conspicuous color I could get. That probably means silver/gray. My choices at the dealer were red or white, so I picked white, hoping it wouldn't stand out too much.

Nautical Metallic Blue,
Because I like this 'classy' colour.
However, if I'd known how pathetically soft the finish would be I'd have chosen a lighter colour to less show the scratches etc. It seems the slightest touch to the paint causes permanent, ugly damage.

battle scars are awesome!

I decied I wanted a red 2d HB manual.

The local dealer only had one manual on the lot.
It was a "carmine red" 2d HB.

So, I purchased it. :smile:

[echaru]

I chose blazing blue. Reason? Psychmobile

Same story, however, the Metallic, was the loss leader the day I got my car. To get a car for the news paper sales price is always a good thing.

[jambo101]

Pacific Blue for me as it was the only one they had on the lot at the time..
