I am sure this is been done before but I have not seen it forever and I got bored and figured why not. We all know what 3 color's came to the states so please vote your favorite in order what color you prefer on the Type R. Thank you

For those who don't know abreviations

CW - Championship White
PY - Phoenix Yellow
NHBP - Nighthawk Black Pearl
FBP - Flameco Black Pearl

I love how the black looks, but not the upkeep of black paint. Hmmm...

Black looks nice however I agree with the upkeep its just to much work trying to keep those swirlies out. I Love CW and PY the best but was biased with my vote and went with PY - CW - NHBP/FBP because I currently own a PY but it could go both ways for first between CW and PY.

I picked black/white/yellow.

I'm just not much into yellow cars for the most part.

If I had the chance to own a mint ITR it would honestly be kept in the garage most of the time, only to come out in nice weather. I would baby it enough that swirls shouldn't be an issue.

I had a friend who has owned two black ITRs (one got cut up) and it was really striking. I like white cars, but I guess I get tired of the hype around Championship White. So I had to go with black first still since as far as looks go, I still prefer the black.

Hmmm, let's see, maybe because it's Honda's flagship color?....

Back 6-7yrs ago in my company's parking lot, I kept looking at all three color (4 caRs)Type-Rs every time I walked pass them. I kept telling myself..."Damn...the PY one is flashy, the two CW are so grand and rooted to Honda racing heritage, and the NHBP one is kind plain looking"....Now a day, every time I walk pass the two color (CW and NHBP) Type-R, I keep telling myself..."Damn...that NHBP one is so plain looking compare to the CW one."
There you have it. For over 6yrs of staring at all three colors, the CW Type-R always come out ahead. Next is the PY Type-R and leastly and last place...the NHBP Type-R. Sorry NHBP Type-R owners. The NHBP color has never grown on me.

I went PY, NHBP and then CW. Even though I have a black one there is just something about the yellow on a Type R...looks sweet! Never really been into white cars.

Although I love PY, the nice thing about the CW and NHBP/FBP is there bumpers match from the factory. My only complaint about the PY is the bumpers never match but it isnt a deal breaker by any means.

CW is clearly the favorite among the colors as expected and NHBP/FBP are clearly the least favorite. Keep Voting if you have not yet. Thanks
