this is your car. it shouldn't matter what we say

i say blue. i had 10 people not like the blue when they saw it at the dealership but i bought it because i liked it. now they do but that never mattered

Depends on what you wanna get in your xB, for 980 bucks more you get 6 disc in dash, rear spolier, cup holder and underdash and under seat lights, special seats and a numbered plaque. Add that up and its worht the wait.

I agree , get what makes you happy. If you have to ask us what color to get. You really don't want a car yet.

you wanted our opinion, heres mine:
can you handle the Orange color of the RS 1?, i like it, very unique, but can't handle it.
can you clean your car every day, making sure it won't show the dust and grimes, and prevent those swirls marks to show on dark colors(blue, black) cars? i can't..
thats why i pick the thundercloud(silver), i also have a silver color Montero sport, its been 5 years and can't notice any swirls marks, and even i don't wash it much it still looks clean, and dust don't show much.

just don't get a dark color like the blue or black cherry...although they look really nice when clean, they get dirty reeeaaaallly fast, and rock and pebble marks show up really bad on the front :? If i had it to do all over again, i would get the white

Thundercloud...you really dont have to clean it as often.

Blue... i wanted to blue but changed my mind to Thundercloud. I had a ruby red rolla, and a black camry...time for a change.

The RS1.0. Yeah, it all depends on if you really need orange lighting, orange trim seats, rear spoiler and 6-disc, and an orange strutbar.

The RS1.0 reminds me of the Nissan Murano Orange color SUV as well as the orange 2004 Pontiac Vibe.

All up to you though. Keep in mind, the xB is already unique, do you need a unique color to even stand out?

its not even like that. the only reason y i asked this question is because im lacking in funds for the rs 1.0. u know the deposit.. i mean i could get the 5 bills but it will be untill march and that will be too late..

get the one that's a balence between being easiest to maintain (keep clean) and a color you like. im guessing easiest to clean would be thundercloud.
