no offense intended but I dont understand it when people make statements like yours above...

get the color you want/like there is nothing to be brave about ... there are thousands of red sportscars in the world ... people wont laugh or lambast you for driving a red sportscar ... its a $100k+ toy, love the car you buy ... screw what anyone else thinks...

My experience of having a Mexico Blue GT3 for the last 4 years has only been a positive one ... and MB make CR look conservative

People are different. Some people are not comfortable in cars that, at least by their perception, stand out too much. The last thing you want to do is lay down six figures for a car that you're too self-conscious to drive.

I think it has more to do with individual differences in personality, which is not a choice. I love the bright colors (truly) but I always advise that people get the car that makes them happiest. Feeling self-conscious can undercut this goal considerably.

Yes, it's a choice agreed.

Let's save the bravery for those who are worthy of it and make real sacrifices. Not which 100K plus car color to buy.

Can't go wrong with either one... although Carmine Red for the 991 GTS will be a little extra special imo.
