Default Color Choices

So I purchased my Caliber this past weekend. Just waiting for it to come in to the dealership. I got is in the Steel Blue color I believe it's called. I was just curious what other people think is the best color. From what I have seen, all the colors look nice. Best red I've seen on any car in a long time. Also, if anyone has a picture of a caliber in Steel Blue, I'd love to have a picture I could show to other people till it comes in. Thanks!

Thanks for the pictures! I searched and searched trying to find one in that color... nearly impossible to find it. As for what model I got, since I'm poor I went with just an SE. But I did take the upgrade to the 2.0 engine. I wish I had the money to have at least gotten an SXT, but it's my first new car, so I won't be too picky. I have to say, after taking the test drive, the CVT is going to take a little getting used to. As I was driving it, I kept expecting to feel the little "bump" as it changed gears. But overall, it was a joy to drive. Then again, after the car I have now... ANYTHING is a joy to drive!

well congratulations on your first new car. you made a good choice. i haven't driven one yet, but from what i have heard everyone says the CVt feels weird with no shift but they like it alot anyways. i was just at my dealer dropping off my car for service. they had 1 caliber. it was like a fully loaded sxt and i must say i am impressed. i didn't get to drive ti or anything because since they had one there was a line of people waiting to test drive it. the dealer said they got 8 and sold all within a week. even the expensive ones.

That is a nice color! I think if I ever get one in the future I would get an R/T in silver.

I have seen Red, Silver and White live so far. I was surprised that White is my favorite, you have to see the colors live. In pictures I liked Red the best, of the three I've seen live.

my personal favorite colors:

red, orange, white, black, blue metallic...and silver.

out of those...the ones that stand out the most are: red, orange, and white.

i don't know...i have only seen silver and orange in person...but, i think i'm not going to go with red because of the high rate of car accidents with cars associated with the color red.

i'm leaning towards orange, white, silver, black, or blue metallic (but not likely...).

my wife doesn't want to go with black too much because "constant maintance" and god forbid car scratches...

the orange was owned by an elderly couple...and didn't seem to be as "visually" enducing as i originally thought...thought it would be more so...whats the word...vibrant?

anyones opinion and what they saw as "eye" catching?
