Need Help picking between red and black

2004-MS3

Member
Ok guys i am gonna be buying a 2009 MS3 this week but i am really torn between the True Red and Black. I love the look the red has with the offset of the black pieces on the red car. On the other hand i truly love the black color all together. Let me know what you guys think and help me make my choice.
 
Black for me because it look mean :)

I like the Metro Grey as well :) byt if you are only going with the red or black I would say black. Just something about the red I dont like.
 
If you are set on red or black, I'd go red, based purely on looks. Love the contrast with the black bits. But seriously, it's not like the black is a fugly color. It's black, man. Classic. You can't go wrong choosing between the two. Only drawbacks- red is a ticket magnet, black is a dirt magnet. Pick yer poison.
 
I like the red... I just don't like how the MS3 looks in black... personal preference. Metro grey is awesome though. And CWP is actually my favorite.
 
I love black, best looking color when all cleaned but after owning a black car i will never again. Scratches just appear out of no where and just washing the car scratches happening. I am very OCD and i still somehow get scratches all over it. black is just a lot of work to keep nice. I enjoy my red since it gives a little more sportyness outa a car that is very sleeper looking.
 
neither if you can, go with MGM first, red next, white and if no other choice black. Black is a b**** to keep clean but looks the best when its fully waxed and detailed. Red looks good, white im meh with because the color still reminds me of rental cars and MGM is an all around awesome color (as well as Cosmic Blue and Silver IMO).
 
My last car was black... I'll never buy another black car. Too much maintenance, you'll see every single scratch and very HOT in the summer... that's why I went with the white MS3. :)
 
to me ur off 2 a good start, red or blak r def the best colors to get, white always looks the same no matter how much u detail it, every other car on the road is silver or gray these days so y blend in? silver is nice on blak wheels though... i got blak nd luv it, yea its hard to keep clean, but when it is clean nothing looks as good... but to b honest if it were today i would of got red, just cause u do see every little thing when its in the sun or under light at night.. id get red if i were u
 
my choice would be sunlight silver metallic. but, for you i'd say go for the black.
 
I love mi negra. Go with black mica. I don't see how difficult it is to keep a black car clean. It's not like a 24 hours job. The car will maintain clean if you're a clean person. The only area that gets dirty the most is in the passengers side. Red is cool but to much color for my taste.
