Time to choose the color

[arock712]

My wife and I have pretty much determined we will be getting a 2008 Mazda5 Touring soon. We've narrowed down our exterior color selection to Stormy Blue Mica or Galaxy Gray Mica. Which would you choose and why?

I love grey/silver cars but IMO the Mazda Gray Mica looks like primer with clear coat. Also I think most rental car Mazda 5's are gray.
I'd choose the Stormy blue for that reason if those were your two choices.

I'll go Blue. Galaxy Gray Mica is a great color and looks less "dirty" than any other one IMO, yet it seems that the Galaxy Gray and Copper Red are very common for 08 (I've also seen it on CX-7s and Mazda3s) so the blue one seems to look a little bit more original.

Oh, and I noted that on bright sunlight the stormy blue has some nice effects...

Don't forget what the looks are if you add a light tint to windows always gives different effect

i say galaxy grey is because i got one myself.. hahaha

the blue is a really nice colour.. but dark blue colour, u'll see all sort of scratches and dirt. and plus with the mazda5.. the back end of the car get dirty extremelly easily. if u're the type of person that's pretty lazy when comes to washing your car (ie. me) den go with the grey, but if u like washing your car a lot.. go with the blue
