Colours that will hold a premium in future?

[paul]

Inferno :approve:
liquid yellow
and gordini blue

??

as i see from a previous thread that gordini is getting rather rare these days......

 

[Harpham]

Sunflower Gotta be...

 

[Marky_]

Whatever there is least of?
Petrol. Lunar. Marmite brown.. I mean bronze.

 

[Aaron182.]

I'm sure RB and LY hold a premium already. And it will stay that way. As people keep crashing.

 

[RDH]

Quite simple really, the least common colours.

Basically this. I'd like to think Sunflower holds a premium, but I think it's really an acquired taste. People like to look at it, but I don't think they see themselves driving one. Personally RB is my favourite colour, but I'm just not a fan of the Ph2. Maybe one day though.

Marmite brown is actually a good name for it! they might have sold more!

You seem to be able to get Marmite everything nowadays too.

But yeah, any colour there is short supply of really

Rare doesn't always mean desirable. A colour can be rare because it looks awful.

Like Inferno

 

[Knuckles]

^^haha

Inferno is one of those colours I like but couldn't own

Premium? Sorry do you actually think anything except the V6 will go up in value? Surely you're not that mental.

You can pick an RB up for 3k now and the LY's have dropped like a stone recently.

A stone was dropped on one iirc.

 

[Christopher]

Ultra Red. Storm Grey. Alien Green.

 

[Knuckles]

Didn't he say hold a premium? As in be worth more than the other colours? Vees have dropped a lot recently wonder if/when they'll go back up

 

[Munson]

Inferno is LY for men, without the stupid price tag from new.

 

[Gally]

Inferno goes into the worst colour on a car group. There's a few special colours in there.

You're selling an FRP for a TT. Your opinion is Nicolas Cage's hair.

PMSL! I think Inferno is a lovely colour when it's clean. When it's dirty it looks shitey brown.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Black Grey.

I kid...

Desirability and colour only go hand in hand with cars that are still worthy of part exchange and only really with main dealers. Even then they usually just use it to haggle you.

Some colours sell better than others, theres nothing else to it.

Fact.

1 more cylinder than you. 6 > 5.

Capsicum ftw.

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Indeed Kev I'm loving it mate such a rewarding colour to clean compared to silver.

 

[Don]

Iceberg 172Cup....should be due to rarity

 

[Aaron182.]

RB with stripes > LY > RB > Inferno

imo

 

[Leeshez]

No pink.

LOL.

 

[Gally]

 

[Steve]

When a car passes it's sell by date no colour will help.

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

Storm grey will pwn all in terms of retail paid and second hand price commanded.

That one on ebay is 1600 with 81k miles with no bids. Doesn't seem to be a premium there..

 

[R-Sport.]

Popular / Rare colours will of course command a premium, however colour alone doesnt sell a car if whats underpinning the value ( ie History / quality of car ) isnt up to par-

So Liquid yellow might be worth 6/700 over a normal 182 however if its tatty, hasnt had a belt change, has a disabled clutch , etc etc will rapidly bring the price down inline with the normal colours-

high price car = desirable , mint condition & FSH- also mileage to a certain extent-

That's what I'm saying. I'd like this 'think' it holds a premium. The fact is it is an aquired taste. People on CS like htem because they are rare, but they are rare becuase not many people liked the colour when it was released. Quality of the car far supercedes colour in terms of priority when buying what is essentially a small cheap car.

Hoping my Pearl White will be more sort after to those who like the colour as there isn't many about :/
