    Worst 3S production color

    I get tired of seeing the same ol' Pearl White and Red 3Ss because there are just soooooooooooo many of them. So, it got me to thinking....what color was the worst choice for the 3S?

    Sorry if it's been done before but I couldn't remember seeing it and I'm curious to know what color should have been skipped.

    None of the factory colors were a bad choice.

    Honestly, I think Orchid Pearl is the worst, it just happened to also be rare so everyone likes it. But it's pretty god-awful.

    I'm not a fan of red on these cars, and it doesn't help that the majority of reds that I see are so beat up. Really I don't think you can go wrong with any color on a 3S, but red would be my last choice.

    I thought the reds were a bad color choice because they didn't use the standard clear coat paints for the red cars. I also think they should have never done any pearl in their cars simply due to the fact that they were not exotics, but they also are hard as hell to repaint...

    Not a fan of red, either, but that goes for any car. I just don't like red, period.

    My least favorite color of the factory 3/S, is that teal color. Sorry to anyone that has it, I don't mean to offend, it just screams late 80's early 90's.
