I mean no offense but I think the assumption underlying your poll is faulty.

Whether the '09 Yellow outsells the '10 Black Cherry or vice versa, it's impossible to say that color has any bearing on the difference. The only way to know if color choice has any impact is if people have a choice of both colors in the same year.

Whether each are the least popular for their respective year may well be a factor of the additional cost rather than the color choice itself.

I agree, the $500 extra charge alone almost guarantees lower demand for both colors. Since both colors command a premium, they are sort of on an equal playing field, even though they are being offered in separate years.

id love a black cherry hehe

And speaking of colors, despite the popularity of Platinum Graphite on this forum, I predict, based on availability, the 09 color sales best to least will be.......Black....Silver....Blue....Red....Graphit e....White....Yellow

Sorry, the playing field isn't equal from year to year; especially right now...TVM and the economy overall is going to have a hell of a lot more to do with sales figures than color choices no matter what vehicle you are looking at.

I dont like the black cherry, too purple. I was hoping for a maroon instead.

cave vulture · 07-17-2009, 08:07 PM

I see cherry is closing the gap....

alexanderb · 07-17-2009, 08:18 PM

Can someone please post a pic of black cherry? It's kinda hard to choose without seeing the choices.

Junior370z · 07-18-2009, 01:09 AM

Hmm... I think yellow... Just because mine is yellow lol!

When I first heard of black cherry I was thinking of a dark black with a slight tint of red. but I think it looks more purple brownish.

I really wish the color was more black and less cherry.

But I still think black cherry will sell more

Honestly I think it depends more on the economy than anything about the colors themselves. If the economy picks up people will buy more cars and the purple will beat out the yellow in sales. BUT, that being said, I think the yellow looks better and I think most people would agree.

So far, 33 out of 64 people agree with you. Sounds like a super-majority!

I pick Yellow over black.

OMGWTFBBQ · 07-18-2009, 01:59 PM

Some people state that the 2010 Black Cherry color is limited to only roadsters. Any truth in this?

Reference pic for some.
