I just noticed that there's no "Official Polished Metal Metallic thread" thread.

Are we who love grey too dull, too neutral, too camera-shy or too few in numbers?

 

start it off.. My dealership told me they cannot find white but they found one of these. I'd like to see how it compares.

 

i'd like to contribute mine if someone started the thread.

 

I saw a few polished silver, maybe its' new for 2012. Personally I like the stock rims with alabaster silver, but I'm biased now xD.

I was all set on taffeta white until I saw it in person, hid the lines...

 

PMM is new-ish with 2011 models.

 

There's a few folks who have posted photos of their 2011 models, might be under some "new owner" threads.

 

out of curiosity which is the most popular color?
and which color is harder to find with a manual transmission?

 

you know how 90% of these Official "insert color" thread started up? A member like you made it and posted a pic. So what are you waiting for do it up!

 

Yup- just start the thread and they (PMM) owners will come.
A new member recently started an "Official Orange Burst Metallic" thread last week.
I think the most common or frequently owned color is SSM (Storm Silver Metallic) mainly because the dealers seem to have had more of those in stock for previous model years.
I am voting the new next most popular color in 2011 & 2012 models will be Alabaster Silver--since dealers have lots of those in stock over the other colors.

I have read that silver in it's various shades is the most popular color of car in the US. I think it is black in Europe.

 

I love the PMM. I had to order my Fit to get a MT and it was a tossup for me choosing between PMM and Alabaster Silver but I went with the silver. I read a survey somewhere else that said the most popular color for cars in general is silver followed by gray.

I kind of like the Storm Silver better than the Alabaster but it is no longer available. Once my Fit is delivered maybe I will start a ASM thread as there is not one of those yet.
