    I honestly think silver is the worst color you can get on a car. Any kind of exterior mods / color schemes people try to do with silver cars just never looks good. Anyone other silver haters?

    Re: Silver cars

    I think that black is probably the best color for any car, but you can't knock silver. It looks clean, and stays looking clean longer than dark colors.

    Silver looks nice with a set of black rims and dark tints.

    Re: Silver cars

    They hide the duct tape if anything is falling off. I bought my car new, and I chose silver, now if I knew everyone else was getting silver too,I probably would of picked a different color, not sure what one though. Also I have'nt washed my car in 3 weeks, and it's not that bad. hate on silver all you want.
    AWE, GIAC, Stasis,KO4s, bla bla bla this is getting a bit ridiculous. I hope it will end soon.

    silver always looks clean, black always looks dirty.

    who cares if a modded silver car looks like ass, most modded cars are honda civics anyway.
    the B5 S4 is like the mafia... there is only one way out!

    exterior mods/color schemes? WTF are you talking about, putting a pink hood on?

    Silver shows off the lines of a shapely car in a clean and modern look whereas black kind of masks everything. At the same time, the silver car always looks clean (my second pic below the car hadn't been washed in weeks, in a Canadian winter), whereas the black car always looks dirty. The exceptions are the day the silver car goes offroading in mud, and the day the black car gets washed.

    Eff your dirty little black A3

    Re: Silver cars

    I drive a black car and I can honestly say a silver car with black accents is probably the sexiest color combo there is. For evidence, see pic:

    Re: Silver cars

    I have alway like silver as a color, but never owned one. I always get stuck with black and I am done owning black cars for a long time, it too hard to keep looking good. Silver is an easy color to maintain and look good.

    Re: Silver cars

    I came from black and I loved it. They are easy to keep up if you know what you're doing when you wash/detail. I don't like my silver one as much as the black but the silver hides stuff pretty well.

    But damn do I miss my black A4. RIP

    for the most part, but what did you expect...your title seems to ask silver car owners to read the thread. Once here did you think they'd agree with you then leave? I'm going to start 2 new threads:

    "A3 is barely an Audi, and should have to have a VW logo on it somewhere"

    or

    "A3 was designed for girls and moms, and any guys who drive them are little fgts"


    Do you think any A3 drivers will reply?

    Re: Silver cars

    To be honest, if I had the choice of nogaro, casa, or the silver I would have not chosen silver, only becuase the rareness of the noggy and casa.

    That being said I love my silver

    It's a fucking color! Who cares? Different colors look good to different people, and on different cars. Is there a point to the stupidity of this thread?

    My old Benz had the old version of the MB Brilliant Silver paint (it was darker and had more metallic in it). I loved it.

    silver can look awesome depending on the car but it is insanely common and boring looking 90% of the time.

    Re: Silver cars

    I used to really dislike white cars, but I've come around a bit. I agree with other posters that silver shows the lines really well - whereas black kind of hides them. I think beige / tan / champagne (as lexus calls it) is the most boring, and silver is basically a neutral color that can go either way depending on what you do with it.
