Gotta be Yellow, I agree.
Silver is my least favourite vRS colour, or least favourite colour on any car.

Re: Whats The Best Colour Vrs?

I'v got a red one but my favourite colour for the vRS is silver. Yellow is very nice for someone elses car and black is boring imo.

Re: Whats The Best Colour Vrs?

Black if you don't mind cleaning, polishing, waxing, detailing, paint chips, cleaning, polishing, waxing, detailing, paint chips, etc.

Silver is actually the easiest colour to keep looking clean, followed IME, by red an d blue.

Black Magic is a stunning colour, but a head-wrecker to keep.

Bonnet bras, waist-line corsets, boot knickers are all required, as well as a garage.
