I'm trying to post a poll with the colors of the MS6. If this dosen't work right maybe a mod can fix it for me. The color options are as follows:

Black Mica
Titanium Gray Metallic
Velocity Red Mica
Black Cherry Mica
Liquid Platinum Metallic
Whitewater Pearl Mica

White has the best overall look IMHO, but the paint on the red will blow you away in the sun. Thats why i went with "Arrest Me" Red!

I went looking for Red. Ended up with a choice of Black or Silver, no red to be found. I loved the look of Black, but didn't want a black car again. So I got Silver.

The color I really wanted was Titanium. Single best color I've ever owned. But no titanium for the 2006 MS6 in Canada.

Nothing sexier than a clean black car...

I love WWP too, but I didn't like how much the black plastic stuck out on the car...

The Dark Cherry is very nice, but we already had a car that color...

Arrest me red is a fantastic red, but i'm just not that flamboyant...

I think all the colors of the MS6 look great. For Me it came down to the White and red. I went with the red because I am a waxaholic and its an awesome color to keep detailed. But the white is awesome too.

I was looking at both whitewater pearl and titanium, after a long thought process I was not fond of how the black trim on the white stuck out. Went with the Titanium, But..the white is such a nice color!

My 1st, 2nd & 3rd choice: I settled for 3rd.

Whitewater Pearl Mica
Velocity Red Mica
Liquid Platinum Metallic

But... I wanted black on white leather, those were rare here and that ones I wanted were Demos.

I went with silver since red was too much of an attention getter with the cops, although I do find it looks really good.

Silver is the color used on the commercials and videos :)

Black Mica, only one available in the wrecked model...hehehehe...No have plans on custom paint sceme so chose the black mica for the easy of transition and plus a pearled black is nice by itself if you ask me. I am kicking around the idea of painting my wheels to match the car when I fix everything and put it under new paint. God bless

I went against my traditional grey/silver daily drivers, and pulled a personality change by going with Black Cherry Mica. Very unique color. Also very tame and under the radar, which is exactly what I wanted, since I switched form a Platinum Silver STI to this. Since I'm a big time MInnesota Vikings fan, I suppose on those bright sunny days this fall, my true vikings spirit can shine through because, this car tarts looking purpole in the right conditions. GO VIKINGS. :)

HAHA...that's funny. It will probably be sometime in Sept once they are off to an 0-3 start :p

I don't think the new coach Childress will go for this though.

Too funny. I'm a bit of an extreme Vikings fan, and this year is the every other year scheduled trip to Minnesota, so this will be the car to take. My friends and family are having a blast with this new car, saying that's the only reason why I traded in my STI, so I can have a Viking Mobile. I'm always in denial, and this is the Vikings year BABY. :)

The Red is the most exceptional!!!
I was getting the white or silver until I saw the red mica in person.
Actually saw all 3 in person and the red won hands down..

I too have the BCM. For me it was no contest, I love deeper reds and the way it sparkles in the light drew me in. My gf still bitches (she wanted black) but I like to be different. In my mind it is a classy color.

the first ms6 i ever saw was red at an auto show and it was a beatiful color, but i love white cars. i actually almost ended up with a red though, the down payment on this car was my xmas present. when my family went looking for a car, she knew i loved the wwp. when she contacted the mazda dealer, they only had a red gt, a black gt, and a titanium sport. she knew i didn't want black, and the titanium was the demo. well a couple of days later the dealer called, and said they found a white gt in south georgia. my mom said if you can have it here by xmas, its sold. it was there the next day. lol so on xmas eve i pulled up and it was in the drive way.

I was offered almost $2K less if I would take a BCM Speed6 - they had 3 close by, but I said straight Black or nothing. Sorry just can't handle having an eggplant color car.

it's not eggplant. i have received nothing but compliments on the color of my car. it looks black for the most part until the sun hits it and it's a badass shade of cherry. but to each his own.

Are there seriously 124 MS6 owners on this forum right now? I don't see that much activity.

Velocity Red for me, but I would have been happy with a Titanium, Platinum, or Black. I thought red stood out much more and it gives the car more "wow what is that!?" responses...which it deserves...followed by even more "wows" when I explain it has AWD and a 274HP turbo.

The black cherry is a unique color also...but then the first response from people is "What color is that???" or "Is that black?". I also don't think it will age well...but like you said, to each his own.

Ended up with titanium gray. First choice would have been black but non at the dealer, second choice is titanium gray, third would have been black cherry now that I see actual pics of it. White just doesnt do it for me so thats last.

The Black Cherry Mica color is stil growing on me, even after a year of ownership. It wasn't my 1st choice of color but I was bargain hunting and found a deal I couldn't walk away from.

I've seen an '05 RX8 Shinka in BCM and as the car raced by me, the color changed from what seemed like black, to a deep shade of dark purple and back to black again all within a few seconds.

This was the first time I've seen a BCM car in traffic and the constant changes in colors from dark to light was pretty cool IMHO.

Would have had VR if I'd have found one (traded a VR 3 hatch for it), but I happily took the black. To me the two are equal in looks. Red's flashier, but the black's just a sleeper badass, very cool and well dressed looking at night, with that nice mica sparkle to boot.

I took delivery of my VRMS6 late at night and didnt really get a good look at the red. The next morning I went to work early and again it was dark so I didnt get a good look at the color... Imagine my surprise at lunch time when I went out to the car and it was sitting in the sun practically glowing... Awsome color to be honest I love it....

Had a red grand am once, and swore I'd never own another red car. Black is my favorite color, but from past experience I can't stand how impossible it is to keep it looking great in the sun (damn swirl marks!) So I wanted the white or the titanium. Someone beat me to buying the white so I decided on the titanium... that is until they placed the VR MS6 in the show room to replace the white. I immediately signed off on a paperwork change, damn it looks great!

Waiting until the 15th is worse then waiting for christmas (bang)

I didn't care for BCM in pictures or on the Mazda website, but once I saw it in person gleaming in the sunlight, I had to have it. I like the car in silver too, but silver and grey are so common MS6 colors around here....in fact, it's ALL I see around here. It's nice to have something a little rare...and she's gorgeous when she's clean.

yea my friend has a black cherry MS6, me like...not so much...i think the red is too flashy and black cars are such a pain to keep clean (but by far look the sexiest, no doubt), the only other color i really wanted was titanium but they didn't have any and I didn't ever see it until I saw my neighbor with it, i really like it but like i said the liq plat is the specialty color and the MS6 is a specialty car, special is as special does...or something...(mj)
