Are there fewer Rally Red Evos out there than others?

the main thing i dont see, being a RR owner, is JDM rears! you will see eb, gg and ww all the time.. never RR...But, as far as rarily seeing anything.. i suppose when your looking for a specific color, its rarily there.. but over time, seeing all the other colors, they stick in your head because its the part you want, just not the right color.. it happens to everyone!

but for the person who said the red paint is expensive.. thats completely wrong..compared to the mettalic colors (eb, gg, tb), ours is much cheaper!

I don't think that's the norm though. I know we have a TON of AS. Some black and Red and Grey.

The rare colors here are BBY, LY, EB and WW. BBY and LY would be the rairest here.

this was one of my first posts but i didnt get any feed back.. and whole thing about geting more tickets for being red is a myth since red is only a small sum of the vehicals driving the streets

Well ....... they don't fade if you keep em waxed and garaged.

The grass is always greener, I couldn't find a TB w/sun roof in my area, then I wanted GG when I first saw it, but by then I was already a RR owner.

I bought red cause I thought, "hey it's like a Ferrari, or an MG, or a Triumph, or something, it's a great classic race color, and I'll probably sell it within a year or 2 ..... "

7 years later, I still park way out and away from everything, or in single spots. Sometimes I still go out in the garage just to look at it.

BUT ....If I had a grey or black, I'd go totally suburban stealth:
black IC & grey Grembos, no wing, VII tails, low profile muffler & tail pipe .... and a baby on board or Rotary Club sticker, with like, little fishes or turtles on the trunk ... which is totally de-badged.

A total 500 hp - 501 fpt wolf, in sheep's clothing.
I would love that

this hi-jacking is ended ... sorry

Agreed. If anything, it makes me more aware of my surroundings being in a RED Evo with the big wing on the back..its like being ultra sensitized to police activity LOL

Well a cop did pull me over last night for doing 78 in a 60. And conspicuously missed everybody else going as fast or faster. Sooo.....

But the color doesn't make my insurance any higher. My insurance company never asked for the color and I never told them.
