well mine is black, and let me tell you if you get a black one be prepared to wash it twice a week :/
I originally wanted a white one, but they didnt have any so i got black, I love the color, just hate washing the car so much :(

Carbon Blue SUX to keep clean. I wish I had the other blue!!

Ditto on that the carbon blue blows... I wanted spectra but settled for carbon blue. I think the spectra blue is the best looking, but I think if I was gonna get another one I'd get white.

Spectra blue mica is the best looking one, but silver is second to none. Most celica I see on the road is either silver or red. I have a silver one and I love my color.. Go with silver, it is easy to keep clean and chicks dig silver ride....ehehhhe

Carbon Blue is hard to keep clean but when it's clean, and I mean clean and polished with Zaino, no other color looks better. IMHO

I own a white Celica, and I think that it's the best color IMO. White is a color that a ton of people told me NOT to get.

LIke my friend told me to get a Silver one, I then drove up with the white gt-s and he goes "Wow, that looks awesome in white".....

It's your call., do you have the ability to actually look at them all sitting on the lot? SILVER IS EVERYWHERE.

please don't get the auto gt-s.....

i have a white gt-s, it looks nice when clean, and at night it shines, but when it rains and gets dirty, it doesnt really show until your next to the car. my sister has a black cr-x and that car shows everything, scratches, dirt, and plus its freak'n hot in the summers. but what-ever color you get, its still going to look nice.

I originally wanted to get the Spectra Blue Mica, but was told I would have to wait 4 months to get one made and then shipped from Japan. So I went with white. Love it to death. When you add carbon fiber gooides as I have there is a nice contrast. Plus white stays a lot cooler in the hot Nevada heat.

I have red... and it's the best color for sporty car...
Right after it's washed... it's so sexy.. turns me on... LOL
Well... what ever people say... red is the #1 choice for sporty car....
I wanted the white.. but it's a sporty car.. so it'll be dull....
There are way too many silver and white in Las Vegas... that is out of the question for me.... I don't see that many red/blue so... It stands out... people look at my car all day long.... well.. maybe I have kit.. but it stands out from most of the cars when I drive around.... and.. yea.. police could pick my car out from miles away.. ke ke ke

just get spectra blue and make sure it's cleaned/waxed properly all the time...you'll stand out in a line of other celicas :)

If I were to get another celica, I would choose carbon blue or black. Those are dead sexy when clean... I didn't go with them originally because they are hard to keep clean.

I love silver because the color is neutral and it makes the car look more classy and expensive. (thats what I went with).

My favorite car color in the past has always been white, but honestly for the celica, white just didn't do it for me. White seems to hide a lot of the celica lines.

Red is nice and goes together well with sports cars/coupes, but it gets too much attention (especially when driving fast).

Spectra mica blue is a nice color too, but I think I would get tired of seeing so much blue after awhile...

There are a large margin of silver celicas, but I think there are enough of all the colors on the road that popularity shouldnt be a factor in your decision.

I say go with the color that YOU like best.
