Not sure if insurance companies still set rates depending on color, so I would go with something bland like silver or bayou blue, or on the dark side like dark red or black. All four colors attract less cop and thief attention IMO. Your call.

I'd vote for either Carmine Red or Blazing Blue.

Funny thing I noticed... I wasn't sure of all the color options available or their names, so I looked it up on Toyota's Website, and I noticed that depending on which model you choose, will determine which colors its available in. I think that's rather, umm, not cool... And it's different between the non-sport and the sport packages too (sedan at least). Like Jolt Yellow is not available on the 5dr model, only the 3dr... And the sedan has more color options than the LB's...

met met or silver.... If you look around the forum, owners of most of the other colors have a habit of posting about their paint being cruddy, or chipping off.. Not to mention dust/dirt are invisible on met met and silver.
