The new Audi S4 brilliant red. It's really bright, glossy.. More flat than pearl.

BMW 5 series Titanium Gray Metaliic. I can't tell if that picture is the SILVER or the darker gray... But i want the darker grey

I leaning towards the vette magnectic red..Just because scion didn't make a red, and i'd love to be the first red scion. Also Red with carbon fiber and bronze rims is sexy....

LET ME KNOW!!! =)

I like the gray, it looks great after a good waxing. And the red calls over the cops, "Hey I'm red over here, pull me over!"

reds too much for an xB, plus i don't like red. Gray metallic is my choice. If you could, the 350z gold color is what I might do in the future.

titanium, grey mettalic is sweet but howabout a nonmettalic grey?

ive said it before and i'll say it againhttp://www.audittcca.com/photo_gallery/aviator/tt_grey.jpg?display=large

aviator grey on the audi tts is sooooo sweet id buy another xb if they cranked it out in that color! Nimbus grey is also quite fetching

Orange is a bit bright for me. I dont like the non metallic/flat paints, gotta have my bling bling yenno? I my DSM was pearl blue, so I'm done with the blue. Already had black so no black.. have white too. I like the color on the box right now (thunder cloud) but if i get a different shade of that color isn't going to make it stand out....Silvers and greys are a big maybe...

i would definately stick with that audi red, but i would make it a candy or even add some solid grahics under the red.

i personally hate metallic colors...one of the reasons i got the polar white....that non metalic grey is the POO!!!!

i would also like pale yellow. VOLVO did pale yellow on the older 850 t5R....that color owns my nuts....with the titanium colored accents, and gun metal wheels.

Yo, Mr Scion, Have you seen the Prowler Orange? I couldnt find a good net photo but it is a sick orange. When the time comes for paint thats the color im goin with.

After going to the import showoff, I fell in love with a lambo orange color that had the marble design under the windows and fades to a solid color on top. The guy said it was $8000, he won best paint at another show, but once I get that cash, that'll be me.
