EBP is the best looking color ever IMO, I absolutely love it everyday I see my car and others always comment on the color of my car.

EBP.

Black is for those that don't have lives other than washing their car every day. =P No offence TB owners. It's still a sick color.

How about you make a decision based on your own opinion rather than trying to get the color the majority wants you to get....

Yo, calm down, name calling is NOT TOLERATED on these boards, he was just trying to state his view which was not even detremental to u in any way, so he's completely fine, thus i say, "lay off newb"

It's a tough decision. I was going through the same thing when I bought my evo. The thing that I considered when buying my car is that the evo has alot of different contrasting colors on it already. Silver front mount with black hood vent, silver rims, red brembos, black window trim, and of course the carbon fiber wing. The black doesn't accent these colors at all. IMO every other color does but black. When I saw the EB evo on the showroom floor I was blown away. My dad didn't care for me buying an evo as my first brand new car until he saw the eb and he was sold. The only problem with the blue is that it stands out alot especially when it's freshly waxed. I don't regret buying my eb evo at all. I like the attention that it gets and I never been pulled over for some stupid reason. Mainly because most Illinois cops know what an evo is. However whenever I see white evo now I begin to wonder if getting the eb was the best choice. Hope this helps!
