i have fm and it requires a good deal of work to keep clean. i'd go with a lighter color for less exterior upkeep. though it is a great color when it is in the sun and clean.

If you're stuck between FM and BSP, I'd personally go with FM.

But like the previous post stated...I'd ultimately go for a lighter color.

If it was only those choise I would go FM

but I dunno why you dont like the other colors.

NBM or IIP = Flashy Colors ( for my experiences IIP maybe NBM have 2 tones of colors the color you see in the sun and the dark evil blue you see in the shadows.

When I got my IIP i loved it but I had eyes on the silver.. Silver is more racing colors seeing it looks good when modded.

but if you only want 1 of those 2. gt the FM

I would really advise you to think hard...

if your planning on modding you should really see which color looks best on ur mod.

example : matchin leather seats to exterior

spoiler color and what color it looks best on..

Rims and what color it matches best on..

dont just look at the scion and its color look at what you plan on doing to it.

Anything but NBM, we have enough of those around already. Go get the silver or black one. Maybe the white one.

Ok, color choice is up to you!

Do you have a car already? (I just noticed you're 16... so i'm guessing you don't already have a car... you paying for this yourself?) Just know that White and Dark colors are hard to keep clean. My preferences when i was looking were White and AP. I had a White car, so I got AP. (Now i don't have my white car ) My White car got totaled 3 days after I order the tC, and i went and bought the same car in Black, go figure.

AP is actually a great color if you're too lazy to wash your car, but want it looking clean. Only thing i ever HAVE to clean off is bird poopie. I clean it pretty often, but normal dust/pollen/etc doesn't really show.

the NB looks crappy in pics on the internet. that's why i ordered a FM. the NB actually doesnt look bad at all in person. i would avoid the BSP cuz black shows dirt so quickly. my buddy drives a black golf and that thing looks filthy all the time. i'd say go with FM or NB.
