Would you get the same colour again?

I bought the 2017 civic hatch sport in Modern Steel Metallic, initially I was leaning towards Aegean Blue but MSM won me over. Honestly though, all of the colors are awesome.
I thought I'd get the Sonic Grey, but when I saw the hatch in Aegean blue, I loved it. I do love pics of the Polished metal--looks sharp! Those are the top 3 colors IMO.

In hindsight I would probably not get the black again.

It looks mean at night washed and waxed, but dirt and water marks show so easily that i'm having to wash it more than I'd like to.

Another thing I noticed is the black trim pieces (front grille) really stand out in the other colors and give a nice contrast. In the black they just kind of blend in.

I think it's fair to say that Burgundy Night Pearl and Black both suffer from the same issue - they look great when clean but are very hard to maintain. Despite this, I still think I'd get my car in BNP, because it seems to be an extremely rare color, and I feel like the color gives my car more of a luxury feel. Especially with the tan interior. I haven't seen another Civic in BNP in my area, come to think of it.

I own the black hatch and I love it. But, it definitely has it's down sides. I really can't stand blue cars but the blue on the hatch looks insanely sexy. That and the metallic steel.

Yes. Love the colour for my sedan (WOP). Now if I went with the hatch or coupe I would probaby chosen red. They weren't out yet.

Wifes HRV is Milano Red which is fabulous on this vehicle.

Got the sonic grey pearl hatchback... no regrets. Super unique color, always getting people saying to me how unique it is. It definitely looks like shit in pictures, but once I saw it in a dealer showroom, I had to have that color. But the floor model at that dealer sold in 20 minutes! So I went to a different county haha just for the right color.
I also am getting lots of comments on the color. All seem to like it. I was getting the car washed at a car wash and heard the guy putting the plastic bag over the rear wiper on my hatch say "I like this color". Yes when the sun isn't shining it looks kinda grayish. The day I signed the buyers order it looked like light grey asphalt. When the sun is on the car the green metal flakes really show up.

WOP hatch. Love white cars.
However, this Sonic Grey Pearl piqued my interest lately, very unique color for a unique car.

Went from a 2012 white civic to a 2016 white civic. I was gonna get black first but I've seen people complain about maintaining it, so I don't regret white at all. Plus I think it's the best color to do any exterior mods on.

But if I were to choose any other one it'd be the sonic grey color

Definitely. One of the safest colors to get and IMO it's the best. Honda making the Aero Kit package in black was just genius.

I would definitely get the same color again. Normals colors are too much "been there done that" for me. I hate normal. :D

If the ivory interior was available on all the other colors i would have gotten the electric blue.
But nope had to chose between black, white, and burgundy.
Don't get me wrong the white looks fantastic especially at night with lights shinning on it, kinda of glows and radiates
but i like colors that stand out more
