I've had Dark Green, Red, White, Silver DSM/Evo over the years and now the Graphite Grey Evo X is my favorite. I guess it shows I'm going for the more reserved look as I age but then again I'm still driving a modified Evo with a loud exhaust.

The uploads are poor quality but you get the general idea of how the GG can look different shades of grey depending on the viewing angles. The new 19" wheels complete that look for me and they were a big hit when I dynoed the car at Street Tuned Motorsports this last weekend.

I have a RR GSR, I dont regret getting it but I did not like the other options I had to choose from. If there was a WW or maybe a PB it might be different for me

I bought my car at South Coast Mitsu so I had all the color options available to me. I initially wanted WW, but GG was a close second and it's more inconspicuous and easy to maintain, so I went for that. I think the "metallic" look of the color matches well with the design of the X, and when it comes to a purely stock car without Aero I actually prefer the GG. With a few aethetic mods like body kit or CF goodies though, I think WW looks much better than a GG ever will. That said, I don't really regret my color choice because I don't plan to do much for aethetics other than a lip and I'm very happy with the way the car looks

Originally wanted WW, but none were available at the time. Happy with my GG, I feel like I blend in more with other cars, which is very important down here with SoCal cops everywhere!

Same here. I just wish the paint wasn't so thin. I plan on getting either a BASF or House of Kolor paint job in the future - I'm keeping it Royal Blue (Octane Blue) though.

love the rr but i rather keep a low profile with the black. i like the sinister all blacked out look on the x. since i was lied to and told the black was only available which i knew was a lie the next best thing was the rr red the or the gg. thought white was for girls no offense to anyone with the white evos just my opinion. the x looks good in all colors some better than others

Its funny just not long ago, we just refer the color of the car as red, blue or black.

Now its RR, WW , OB etc.

Anyway, I am still torn between a white or blue X. I like the subtle-ness & "cleanliness" of white, but the blue looks really nice for an X.

I love my GG. Tint the windows, tails, and throw some black, gunmetal, or bronze rims on and it looks amazing.

Wow.. you just bumped a thread that's been dead for almost 3 years!

Lol, guess I'll stay on topic.. still love my Phantom Black.

Wish it was darker or blacker, but still my favorite outta the few oem colors available. I'd probably also be happy w/GG or WW as a 2nd choice.

I was originally leaning toward GG for my 2010 but I saw the WW and have never regretted it. It gets great comments wherever I go.
