The silver really isn't special, the rest of the colors besides black mitsu hit spot on with the flake and color.

I would go black if I had to pick bet. the two. I have a silver now, but I think I may go for the gray. Both the RA and wrx look good in it...

I can get a graphite grey RA next week. Seems like a good compromise, I like the color, and its easier to keep clean than black.

Go for it. They look great in GG.

Make sure you post some pics. There is only one pic in GG that I have seen and it is only of the front.

Only thing about GG I don't like is the chrome on the front bumper doesn't go well really

Yeah, the chrome on the grill goes best with silver I think.

Ended up going with the Silver because it turns out they couldnt get the GG one in. I hate when people make promises before they actually bother to check if they can deliver. Anyhoo, I saw it in silver, fell in love. Love the way it looks. Will post pics soon.

Only problem is they didnt freaking tell me that there was the option to take the front license-plate off the grill and put it off to the side....I can get that done, but Ill have two screws in the front grill as a result of the holes they drilled. If I had found out about that option before I signed the contract and paid for the car, I would demand they get me a new one, but since it was basically my own incompetence (or lack of info) that led to the situation, I can live with two barely-noticeable black screws in a black grill.

eeek sorry to hear about that bro!! My Dealer gave me the heads up thankfully, though it was parked right beside the Evo so I kinda figured it out. I went with BLACK, it's my 4th black car and its awesome. Yes its more work to keep clean but man it looks good when it is. Congrats on the Silver! look forward to seeing your pics!
