most desirable colors

[jdirecto]

Like everyone says personal taste is key. Choose something that you won't get bored with after a period of time. I like jford, riviera, inka, polaris myself.

Not a color specific comment, but a general statement. The lighter the color of the car the larger it will appear, and, the darker the color the smaller the car will appear. As I have mentioned before that is why overweight people (probably ladies more than men) tend to wear black clothes. Makes 'em look a little smaller.

Thank you all for the nice responses, the original color is Agave green, although I'm using quite a bit of parts from my (beloved) Manilla 1602.

The most desirable color is the one YOU like best. Simple as that, IMHO.

I really like Agave when the paint is new, but when it gets old and faded it looks like dried out aspargus. I would repaint the original color. My favorite color is Inka

Malaga of course...

Before you decide to repaint your Agave 02, do a forum search to see what an Agave 02 looks like with decent paint. Below is a link to a 1972 Agave 2002. It's not restored or in mint condition, just a nicely maintained survivor.

I found these pics on a quick search of the forum, there are plenty more pics of Agave 02's in the archives. An Agave 02 with decent paint looks great in my book. I'm sure others can post pics of their Agave 02 as well

from seeing peoples cars here & there and reading this thread, the answer to the question and which hasn't been answered yet should be obvious....

all factory colors are the most desirable colors....

I'm almost completed with my restoration. Original for me was agave, I'm going Jadgrun.

I'd probably go with the original color, but if you really want to go with something different just go with what grabs you! :-) All the '02 colors are unique and have their individual attributes.

Personally, as much as I do like Colorado & Inka they are probably the worst colors for offsetting amber turn signals....the colors just sort of "run together".

I like "contrast", therefore I think it's really hard to beat Chamonix or Schwarz...who said Chamonix is "boring"??? I use to not like it that much until I owned one and saw fresh paint on it...WOW!

You might want to consider Nevada also....I just love that color, especially with black interior!

Good Luck with the decision!
