What about the color?!?!?!?

I finally pulled the trigger on a 2003 Coupe, the car is extremely clean, the body and engine near perfect (only 58K), has new tires, brakes, etc., all is great, so I couldn't pass it up - but it's "Caribbean Blue" ! I've always preferred the 'sophisticated' look: silver, graphite, white, so this car is a complete shock to my system. I'm just curious what others think about this color. Do you think it cheapens the look of the car?

I initially looked for Carribean Blue when I started my search. One dealer told me (before she knew what blue I was talking about), "Yeah...that Carribean Blue sure is popular among the ladies and the young asian guys!". LOL

I got Lakeshore Slate and I love it. I like the CB though, too. Who cares what other people think? If you like the color, get it.

Man CB is one of the rarest colors on the G. Even more then Athens Blue. I like the color. Rock it with pride.

Hey...."WELCOME TO DRIVER!"

You can't go wrong with any of the "Blues!" Everybody and their brother
have a silver/black/white or red G. Once you get some polished wheels
and a drop on your CB coupe you'll be lov'in life....

I completely agree. I am a new owner, and really wanted white. I ended up with diamond graphite like everyone else in the area. Not only does your blue look great, it is unique. Congrats!

Thanks everyone for your replies. I must say that the 'wow' factor is pretty cool. People are always taking a second look, and they don't hesitate to say 'cool car'. I really do like the uniqueness and attention that it gets. I think the black, graphite, white colors make it look more like a luxury car, where the cb definately hedges toward the sports car side of the G. It's all good! Thanks again.
