Please HELP! I need advice!!!

Ok what do you folks think. Please help me decide! Originally i wanted a black cherry. It would match my FJ40. But then I thought the color looked too flat due to some pictures i saw online. But i went and saw one today and liked it again. THe blue is what i have a deposit on. I like it too. I originally liked it because i thought fewer people would have it but it seems that is the color everyone has. I want a loaded 6speed and the one i put a depost on is in new orleans, but i found one here in baton rouge that is black cherry. I may have to see if the dealer i am working with can trade for it. I dont know. (please, i dont need to know about dealer workings, i appreciate that advise, but i sold cars for 4 years up until law school 9 months ago) i just wanted to know what you thought. Is the Black cherry actually going to be the rarer color? Would it look so much better next to his older brother if the colors matched? Give me some input, PLEASE!!!


HERE IS THE OLDER BROTHER. Should i get a color to match???

Hey if you like the Black Cherry in person definitely go for it. It is definitely the rarest of the FJ colors.

Re: Please HELP! I need advice!!!

Man you're crazy. let the forum decide. Put pink in the mix and see how many people vote for it Get what you want. BC is definitely the rarest. Also looks awesome in person. Will look great next to your FJ40. Blue is awesome too. That was my 1st choice, but I got black b/c I didn't want to wait. I don't regret it at all. You'll love whatever color you get. Don't lose sleep over it though. Besides when my paint gets too wrecked, I'm gonna have it painted desert tan (the best color for the FJ)

Blue i think is the most popular color. (maybe black.) Dont go with a poll. Its for you. Get the one thats right for you. You dont want to regret this decision later.

Re: Please HELP! I need advice!!!

Don't pick a color because its rare...pick the one you see yourself driving when your eyes are closed. I've only seen one red in person, and while it is a nice color it did not do the FJ justice, it would look a lot better on a sports car.

I think it would look awesome next to his old brother to be "TWINS" BUT

It would be cool to have a different color too!!

Either or NICE older brother!! I havent seen all colors on the road here so I cant say which will be more popular...None the less you better decide before they are sold!! A dealership should have no problem buying the other FJ for you if thats what you want, they will have it drive over and you will have it just like that! Atleast thats what they do here in AZ

Re: Please HELP! I need advice!!!

My first test drive was a black cherry. I went with silver but black cherry was my second choice. I also think it is the hardest for the dealers to sell

Re: Please HELP! I need advice!!!

Thank you for the advice. I just cant make up my mind. grrrr...... I am just afraid that the blue would get old after a while. I like it, but who knows. Maybe i should just go with the black cherry. Man this is so hard. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.... ...................
