Unless you want to ship one from Japan, there is no yellow IX in your future.

i of course will say white cuz i have a white one but the thing is... i say white not cuz it's the best color, i think blue by you is the best color. but white is great cuz it's common... for cars in general and for evos. it's not offensive and you can sometimes slip under the radar... *crosses fingers*

I don't know why people say yellow is ugly. It depends on the car really. On a Subaru Outback or Forester, yes it would be ugly. But on sporty cars like an Evo, Ferrari, Vette, looks sharp. Not to mention they always use it in the Japanese vids.
The yellow used on the WRX looked to faded, had like a beige tint to it. The Evo's is richer. You are right about the shine, doesn't get as deep, like a black. Then again you don't see dust on it. Much like white. You do however see dirt, which forces you to keep it clean. You don't see swirls as much on yellow or white as you would on a darker color. Who says yellow fades? My '03's paint is still deep and shiny. The way I see it everybody tends to buy the more common colors, so I chose the rare one.

why do you think taxi cabs are yellow? because they get NOTICED! yellow is a noticeable color hence, LESS accidents because people tend to NOTICE you. Plus the lightning yellow EVO looks sick hence, why I got that color over black.

funny enough, at the time i was looking to buy, the dealeship i went to that had exceptional deals on 03's as 04's were coming in, they only had red and yellow left to choose. if i had a choice i would of preferred blue or black, but i wanted an evo bad so i chose yellow. i didnt like the color at first but now i love it as does every one else i talk to. i also got a cfh for it, which beside white, yellow looks the best w/, imo.

yeah i originally wanted black (this was when the blue was bby, not eb), but my dad made me get a yellow one. when a 50 year old conservative-as-hell man tells me to get a yellow car, i listen. and i like it a lot more than the black now!

but if eb had been out, i woulda been all over it!
