Black or Victory Red

Which exterior color would you chose over these 2? Also in either one would you do red inserts for the seats or leave it all black inside?

It's all a matter of opinion. I prefer a Black exterior with red inserts on the seats..that looks sick. Red will get you pulled over more...and that my friend is a FACT. They did a study of most stopped vehicles: 1st - Red 2nd- Yellow

Good to hear. Its about time they stop with that whole car color scam

Now if only they would stop discriminating based on age, vehicle type, engine size, and gender we would be all set

Yaa I second that my last car nissan Maxima was black and its awsome when its clean but it is hard to maintain. I myself had the choice btw red and black both with red inserts and picked red. For 2 days I was second guessing my choice but when i picked it up I couldnt be more happier. The red turns alot of heads and it stands out alot from the crowd like hell. (true its a good thing and a bad thing with cops ) But like i posted in another forum, cause i asked the same question before too, cause i couldnt decide on the color. No matter what you choose You will love it cause the car is awsome regardless the color.
