Favorite Paint Color for 3rd Gen

I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like the Pebble Biege/Champagne color. This is probably because my Max. is champagne and I rarely see this color on the road. I am interested to see what other colors you guys like on your 3rd Generation Maximas.

OMG. haha. Me and my GF were just talking this morning about how champagne/pebble biege colored "Cars" are ugly.



Super Black here though, and yes I do own a black Max, but I have always liked black.

1) Silver!!

2) White

They look so fresh when they're cleaned, but tend to get dirty too easily.

I have to agree with you there, Chris... A guy in my town owns one, and I swear, I'm about that far away from throwing a can of bright pink paint on it!

But I've noticed a whole heckuva lot of people saying either black or charcoal grey.

I guess if I had a choice, I'd have my car the same color it is, but with a decidedly pearl clear coat.

paint

3rd gens look good in red, another seldom seen color. mine is pearl white, quite common, but not as common as pure white as far as i can see. i like the pearl color. the champagne is nice, too, as you have said. that color is very uncommon but is tasteful. i once saw a green one, like a grass green color. someone had that painted. it was quite odd. a camo painted max would look interesting. as would a bright yellow metallic. never have seen that. i like the dark blue metallic color from the factory as well. that may be my second favorite next to pearl. gunmetal grey metallic looks great, too, as does silver. very sporty.
