Lunar is a very nice color and certainly easy to maintain... but... you'll never get a deep, reflective shine like this... ;)

I don’t want it. You can’t see the car or its bodylines. All you see are reflections.

Silver? The Toyota Corolla of car colors.

Aegean Blue's candy like characteristic when the light hits is just *boing*

The reason I think Cosmic Blue is the coolest color isn't just it's rarity. I like how it looks different in different lighting. Sometimes it looks black, sometimes gray, sometimes a deep, rich metallic blue. But what a pain in the ass to keep clean.

The white is nice but it’s very very common in Florida so if you see another color than white it stands out
Yeah that's pretty true, which is why I opted for the Xpel Full Stealth PPF Wrap on the car hence the "Frozen" matte look. It really accentuates the body lines and makes the edges stand out.

True you don’t see many civics in that color mostly white and red at least where I live I was considering that color but I had too many blue cars especially the 3 I had before my civic needed something different
Btw what wax do you use or is it ceramic coated? You’re car looks fantastic

Frozen Championship White would like to have a word with you.
White is second-best in terms of cove shadow, but as a non-metallic the rest of the bodywork has no dynamic tendencies. It's why you bought one all dolled-up with decals and bolt-on's.

Yes, if you're 16.

As a very successful Executive VP, I'm positioning my two son's towards an executive career path and I've worked too hard to raise them and get them into good schools to let them be seen upon graduation in their 20's by their executive peers and superiors in an eBay-accessorized drifters car in a Hot Wheels color. I'll never promote one of my direct or indirect reports driving such a car.

Most definitely. Lunar Silver is so good Honda should just discontinue the other colors and cut back Civic production.
