Hi All!
I noticed a lack of love for Crystal Black Pearl 10th gens (and really, all CBP Honda's) on Facebook, so I created a group called Crystal Black Pearl Honda Owners.

Obviously I'll be leaning more towards 10th gens, but it looks like Honda's been using that color for a while across a range of vehicles, so I wanted to be open minded.

Please check it out, and if you've got a Crystal Black Pearl 10th gen please join!

Hi.
I don't think that it is a lack of love per se, but maybe there are just fewer people who bought black Hondas than the other colors.

I was originally planning to get the black one with orange modulo skirts, but after looking back on the headache of keeping my previous black car looking decent, i settled for the dark metallic grey (modern steel?).
Of course there are exceptions, but I think a good number of Civic owners intend to use them as daily car - in which case, black is kinda an impractical choice for the reason above.

Still, a black one with orange skirts would still look awesome :p maybe in the future .....

Don't have a Facebook account, I deleted it years ago. Don't miss it. It was like cable news, complete garbage.

I like my black Civic, especially when it's overcast/rainy. Bright sunlight brings out all the imperfections. Next car, I'm going to choose a light colored one, black is a lot of work.

I had a 17 CBP Sedan and traded it for the Aegean Blue Hatch. I think black looks the best clean but my heart couldn't take it anymore.

I've got a CBP sedan. I wanted dark metallic gray but the dealer didn't have a pre-owned one in the EX-T trim I so desired so I settled for black. After my last black car (2009 Fit) I swore I'd never get a black car again haha. She sure is pretty when she's clean, though!

I had a 17 CBP, as others said, it was awesome, for about ten minutes after I washed it,lol.
But having bad OCD, I couldn't handle having to clean it two or three times a day any more.
