Getting another evo, RR or PB???

Sup guys. I had a 2008 ww gsr several years ago and had to sell due to circumstances. Since then I've owned several vehicles including two wrx's but nothing has filled the void the evo left behind. So I am returning but torn on colors. I thought I would return to ww but it is sooo played out. So its rr or pb. Heres a couple of my past vehicles

I love the black, but of the 20 black cars I've owned over the years, this is the hardest one ever to keep clean. Do yourself a favor and get a lighter color.

Black is such a pain to keep clean... As I'm sure you know. I'd go with RR if those were my choices.

Thanks guys. Yes black is always a pain but looks so good. Im thinking RR with mgm sa55m wheels, coilovers, lots of carbon pieces (fender vents, hood vents, fog delete, and carbon lip kit) and do the black headlight mod like I did on my ww to finish off the exterior... Maybe flat black roof wrap?

That blue is sick, you should get it instead of any of your options. Cosmic blue I think?

I don't know why you don't want a WW however, played out or not it looks amazeballs and its your car not anyone elses

I vote WW over any.

I LOVE the way my PB looks when it's clean, but keeping it clean is mission impossible.
So it's up to you and how much you clean your car.
Personally, I would go get a RR or maybe even a WW (even though it's the most common color, it still looks incredible)

Thanks for the input guys. Im really leaning towards RR. However, the best deal will be the deciding factor most likely lol.

I have a PB and absolutely love it... when it's clean. Keeping a PB clean is damn near impossible. I wash it one day, let it sit overnight and it will attract dust and dirt like a magnet. However, on the flip side - when it's clean and shining, everybody needs neck braces.



Even in the above picture, that car is a little dirty.

I like the rally red personally, I love how mine looks with my gold advans on it. I get compliments all the time. But You get get any color you prefer and just get it plastidipped if you ever get bored. I plan on doing a matte white plastidip job on my X.

if the paint wasnt garbage, i might rock a black evo x. But nothing looks as sick as a white evo x, espicially with carbon pieces.

You ever look into cosmic blue? Its dark and almost looks black at night, but then in the sun the blue really stands out. I have a 2014 cb evo x and love it. If its between rr and pb though Id have to say go with the PB. The red does look good, but draws to much attention with cops and also was never a big red fan, although I did have a red s2000, before trading it in for a abp s2000 cr. good Luck!
