Default Your favorite Gen 1 body color

I'm a Honda guy and all my cars are Honda. All of them are also white color. I just got lucky and got the opportunity to get Hondas in white. What's everyones favorite Gen 1 body color? What color is hard to get? Thanks folks.

Black hands down. EPB is stupid looking on CRVs - Save it for the Si's. I rarely see black CRVs come up for sale and always find blue, red, and silver ones it seems.

Either way, this thread is completely pointless and is just going to create arguments.

EBP looks good on any car IMO. True, every color but gold looks good too. But I love my Milano red!

"EBP is stupid looking on crv's" really helps the arguing situation.

+2 I thought it was an ok topic. Negative comments should have been kept to themselves. Just trying to get peoples opinion on what they prefer, thats all. I'm a sucker for white Hondas.

Didn't realize people were going to get that upset about posting my opinion. My bad, I keep forgetting the CRV forum isn't that technical. Start a thread like this in the N/A or F/I sections and you will be ripped to shreds. This is more GDD style topics. Fine then I will change my response to what was beginning to get posted by others:

OMFG Black FTW!!!

PS - There is this little thing calling ignoring somebody... Have fun guys.

a thread like this doesnt belong in the N/A or F/I sections cause its not about engines, its about crv color in the crv section

I have the Sebring Silver Metallic CR-V. I like the color, but its kind of bland. As a detailer, it does not show all the work I put into like a deeper car color would. Another vote for the Electron Blue Pearl as my favorite!

In order of my favs:

1. Electron Blue Pearl
2. Milano Red
3. Clover Green Pearl

I like it simple...every Honda I've owned has either been black or white. I truly love black on black, but everyone and their mom has that...recently tried black on white rims and it's really starting to grow on me.
