if I were to BUY mine now, I would seriously consider getting a black one and painting it flat black...with red emblems lol

but out of stock colors red and white are the more distinctively looking ones IMO

you're slowly turning your car into black mica like mine :chuckle. I would have got white if my wife didn't hate it, but i don't like how on white the stone chips show black underneath.

Black is sleeper ftw :chuckle

2006 uses snowflake pearl white..and is only for regular hatches..
and the 2007 got rid of that pearl white.. and change it to crystal pearl white.. both colour code is different too..

i see that ur sig say is snowflake white speed 3... =/

You are absolutely right royroy. My registration and all my paper work from Mazda say Snowflake White Pearl; so I have always called it that. After your reply I got interested, and wanted to know the scoop . So I found the color codes which were 25D for Snowflake and 34K for Crystal, checked my car and it says 34K. So anyhow thanks for the correction.

There is NO WAY that any of the RED, BLACK and WHITE can be more incognito than the Cosmic Blue Mica...nothing screams SPEED more than RED...and yeah, everyone knows, WHITE cars are faster cuz it uses less paint... ;)

BLACK cars are just plain trying to hide something...

Now to put in the baby seat and the "Baby in Car" signs to complete the sleeper mods...lol...

so ..... you're saying MSPers that decided on Black used reverse psychology at purchase? deep. i just chose black b/c it's the manliest colour for a 3, Speed or not.

I got black. I like the way it shines day and night (when it's clean) rather than the white one. It is a bit of a sleeper and I like that as well. I would NEVER buy a red car as the cops like those too much.

My friend has a 2006 red mustang and he gets tickets for the weirds things. Ridiculous, a cop told him once that if he would probably never pulled him over if he wasn't driving a. Mustang and b. Red. He told my buddy that he sticks out like a sore thumb...and it's always the 40-50$ tickets that you don't want to fight because it's not worth your time.

let me reiterate (and pls let me gently remind everyone here that we all drive STICK...so...)

I meant to say that I truly do believe that MY cosmic blue mica MS3 is the most inconsipicuous...as in LEAST noticeable by the po-po...black is cool as well, but a shiny black car with midnight tints, tho inconspicuous, will be MORE noticeable than a cosmic blue mica...all great cars, just one of the reasons I chose cosmic blue mica...also cuz the great poll results we got here: LEAST AMOUNT OF PPL HAVE IT.

Only diff between Cosmic Blue Mica and black mica is that a dirty Cosmic Blue Mica will not look as dirty as a black Mica. Both kinda sleepers of there own but no offense, I am not a big fan of that Cosmic Blue Mica color....but that's my opinion. If you like it thats all that counts!

That's funny! I should adjust my word selection. White is nice but cosmic blue is better. Sorry to disappoint but "M" is my answer. Maybe I should get one in white as well. Wouldn't that be cool.

I think it's safe to describe cars in those terms since colours and shapes hold undertones that are comparable to the image of a female. Sometimes exotic and sometimes plain but always with curves that flow. I enjoy looking at cars in the same way I enjoy looking at lovely ladies. So don't worry b/c "M" is for masculine.

the new MPS metro grey is nice don't get me wrong, but it's not a sporty colour, IMO. funny thing, my last car was a 3GT, similar carbon grey mica. nice & all, but sedan-nice. but hell, it's all personal opinion anyway.

my order of fav MPS colours:
