I'm hoping I pick up my max tomorrow, but I need some help in choosing the color. Should I go liquid silver or smoke? They both look nice, but I'd like everyone else's input. Thanks!

Smoke

It was the last color on my mind. After picking out the options I wanted (no sunroof, DPP, VDC) there were on two cars within 30 miles. I called the nearest dealer and purchased (over the phone) at a best price. At the lot, it looked hidden among the Reds, Onyxes, Bronzes...
Brought it home and my wife immediately claimed I got good taste. For the last 19 months, it never sits under a roof. But looking "brand new" all the times, dirt won't stick out. Never been waxed, except the "wax-as-you-dry" treatments. Scratches and nitches don't advertise themselves. Love my Smoke.

Onyx for me again, even though its a pain to keep clean but when it is- it is smokin hot. I have the frost grey interior, I wish I had black but I think it would get just a little too hot in the summer sun.

Welcome to the 6th Gen, post some pics.......

Smoke or silver

tough choice. id probably go with smoke.

i got stuck with onyx because it was the ONLY 6spd in the tristate area. show dirt, have to clean constantly otherwise it looks like crap.

Not sure what exactly a "rebuilt" title means especially when it would come time to sell it or trade it in-any experience with that?

rebuilt means that a car was in an accident, the insurance totalled the car and it ended up on a auction particuallary www.copart.com a body shop buys it for around maybe 3000-4000 depending on the car, fixes the car and sells it for about 30-40% cheaper then retail value.

This is my 7th rebuilt car, I had no problems with that car, they garage that fixes these cars does a wonderful job!

so all u gota do is hop on copart.com pick a car and a body shop and ur all set!

You can fully insure it, and fully register the car no PROB!!!

Its a good deal if you have some patience

I don't know about it being all THAT easy. I work for AIG and we don't insure rebuilt cars for comprehensive and collision, but I'm sure other companies do.

I only went w/ liquid silver only b/c my wife had a smoke altima, I didn't want be a super nerd and have 2 smoke vehs in the house!!!
