You'll have conflicting opinions, but I'm pretty sure the majority of people have either Nighthawk Black Pearl or Alabaster Silver (or whatever it's called). Third place I think is blue, can't remember the color name :-\

Trying to advise anyone on a color is very difficult because it's a very personal choice. When I bought mine, in May of 2006, I had a choice of Silver or Red. I went with Silver because my 2000 Accord Coupe is the same color Red as the Fit. I think it's called Milano Red. I bought the Fit for my wife and I drive the Accord.

Majority of the owners have NHBP *night hawk blue pearl* / black basically, or SSM *somethingsilvermetal*, VBP *vivid blue pearl* which was my first choice and looks supremely beautiful, or MR *milano red*. I personally got a not so common color, BOM *blaze orange metal*, really neat in the sun :3. TW *taffeta white* is another color but was only offered in the 07's.
I would stray from a metallic if I had the chance again, its hard to match when using touch up paint(the metallic flake and all). Lastly, irrelevant but true, europe and JP have colors like yellow that we hadn't received.

good luck on your choice, and Welcome to FitFreak!

i think im going to go with the silver that was my 2nd choice over the vivid blue but its a little to common all the new Si hatches have that color and silver looks nice with any mods or just stock, the black gets dirty to easy and shows scratches and dents, but with mods like lowered and CF hood and wheels i LOVE the red, has a real JDM look to it i seen a really nice one on Cardomain but the onlything is the red looks like crap stock
so the silver is my choice now now just to pic some wheels think i might go with black rotas with a blue pin around the lip

Go with TWB, very unique and rare color. Looks sweet once you start modding aswell.

VBP looks great polished and sealed. I'm not sure there's a huge difference between metallic and pearl, my VBP has metallic flakes in it. Then again, I haven't looked closely at the other colors.

the solution to your conundrum is simple: buy one of each.

Well it all depends on what your like! We have the Black Berry Pearl, not many around in B.C.

Like any dark color it shows its scratches, I can honestly say go for a lighter color if you are lazy and don't want to wax a car once and a while. I feel that the honda paint just isn't what it used to be and it scratches very easy

well i like alot of the colors like the black looks really good with some spoon wheels but just worried about every blemish showing up, and the silver looks really crapy stock but with stuff done to it looks sweet and you cant see marks that easy on it, the blue looks good stock or done up kinda makes it look like a Honda Civic hatchback Si wanna be, oh and i cant really do anything other then cosmetics to the car becouse im having a baby soon and i cant have an exhaust or lowered to loud and dont need it bouncing around som thats why i wanna find somthing that looks good stock for now and when i wanna do it up looks good when i do that later.

Sounds like you want some of everything. On that note, im going to have to concur with pip_rocks. The only alternative is if you buy every color.
Btw, periods are your friend! lol I noticed you live in PA. Are you a pens fan?

dam man. ive been out of school for that long. i almost couldn't read the "i pasded skul wif frying culors".

anyways, i say rock the blue or purple.

dont get me wrong i love the other colors.

but i want to see more of the blue and purple get modded. mainly the purple. i love pearl, so thats why i want that color. its a very sleek, and under the rader type color. yeah get blackberry pearl. so sexy if modded right.
