VBP really is my favorite color, it's shiney in the sun, but at night under a full moon it looks so dark and deep. If you want to make your color look a bit darker you can always tint your windows. I'm sure you'll love your color especially when you see people stare as you drive by :P

I can't wait til it gets here!!!
LOL -- yes, that was my initial reaction (and I still have moments!) - but you're right it's awesome and I do love it. Congrats on your Fit in transit! The orange looks incredible. Orange Fits in this area are/were pre-sold - so there haven't been any available. Enjoy!!

Vivid Blue Pearl is a realy nice color. When I was selecting color for my car it was between VBP or NHBP. Both colors are rare and I think the blue looks sporty, the black looks exlusive. But the red and silver colors are dull colors, almost every car is red or silver, at least around here I live. There are ofcourse other colors too, but I did not like them.

I ordered a NHBP, but actually ended up with a ultra rare color: Black Amethyst Pearl. And after I have seen it in sunshine, that color beats all other color options from Honda

The VBP is a great color! I saw one at the dealer when I picked mine up. I ws going to go SSM, since I am an Ohio State fan, and decorate it with some great red and gray/silver stuff, maybe turn it into a helmet with a tape stripe or two on the roof, but when I saw the Blackberry Pearl, I knew that is what I had to have! It is a pain, and shows every little thing, but whenever I am near her, I can't stop looking. Know what I mean?

Dude, mine is orange and awesome. They asked me if I wanted another color and I said no, so they had to look for it. WELL worth it

I'm sure you'll be happy with yours, it isn't too flashy at all.

I don't like the blue.
Reminds me of my dads 76' LTD.
But color choice is an individual thing.

i still like the blue but i wonder sometimes if it would have been better as a metallic color.

The VBP is a beautiful color. My first choice was the BOM but I was told it was nearly impossible to find on the East coast so I decided on the VBP. It did not come in and the MR became available. Once I saw it in person that was it -I have never owned a red car before but this one is fun. Enjoy your Fit and know that you made a great choice.

The VBP is a nice color. I might have gone that way if my friend hadn't just bought a blue one. So instead I went with the BOM. If it ever arrives!

VBP is awesome! It was my first choice, and the only one I would have settled for. Not only does it complement the fun, sporty looks of the car, but it makes you stand out on the road! With such a small car, I wanted to be highly visible, and didn't want to blend in in with all the silver, white, red, etc.
