How much did the color affect your decision when purchasing your Spyder.

[Ivorspyder]

It sure affected mine as I fully expected to buy the red RT S which I knew was in stock at the dealer.I also liked the white but not enough to influence spending more.As I walked into the dealership I saw the Lava Bronze which had just been put out.This was only in the Limited version.It had lots of extras chrome ,bags etc etc but it was the color that made me spend all that extra money.:dontknow::ohyea::yes:

had to have the rts 2012 blue:yes::yes::yes::yes:52752

[Bob Denman]

The Missus wouldn't allow me to pull the trigger on anything but BLUE. We actually ended up changing dealers and models to get the color that she wanted.
But in her defense; Blue would have been my first choice as well! :thumbup:

[murphybrown]

Had to be a 2010 RT SE5 Silver...would not even consider another color...that is why I purchased in Illinois couldn't find one any closer!!!! But now I know about Cowtown and a couple other highly rated dealers so whenever I get ready to get a new RT...color will still be #1 on list!!!:clap:

[ornerydog7]

I actually liked the black, but once I saw the pearl white in person, I changed my mind rather quickly!!

Had to be Black....so, I bought a year back. :doorag:

[boborgera]

When i bought my Spyder April of 08, Yellow was the only color, With Sliver coming out next.
I wanted Yellow anyway, I figure if i was getting a Machine made by BRP it might as well be in their flagship color.

when the mrs and i were looking, we had the rss grey metalic/black on our minds. neither one of us really liked the neutron green and we still wanted the rss. when i got to the dealer and was ready to lay down the cash, neutron green and the can am red (pumpkin orange) were all that he had in sm5, which was another "had to have". she looked at me, i looked at her and and at almost the same split second, we both said," the orange is kinda nice", so needless to say, that's what we got. glad we got it! love the look and get compliments on it and the graphics all the time.:cheers:

[Dragonrider]

Only one color available, and it was OK (not Hardley orange or lime green). So not at all.

[grumpybob]

Went with Lava. Thought it would not show the dust and scratches as much. Don't have any scratches yet!

[Fire Bike]

Occupational Hazard, Too bad it doesn't have a black top....;)

[shelbydave]

It had to be something visible. When the red RT-S was a tad out of our price range, we went with the blue RT A&C. The silver looks nice in the sunlight, but I was aftaid it would be invisible if we hit a fog bank.

My absolute favorite looks wise is the Lava Bronze. That tan seat really sets it off.

[revjvegas]

Well, since I'd decided on red long before I had even gotten to the dealer, I guess the affect would have been that I was headed to a different dealer if they couldn't get me one ;)

[spyder3]

I wanted red......she wanted white.....nuff said.:dontknow:

[Goblyn Gyrl]

There is no way I would buy a color I did not like! I wanted a bright high visibility color and the neutron green stands out. I am for anything that makes me a little safer!

[Champagne]

Lava Bronze Tan Seat. I Had to get it. It was calling me.....:gaah: the only problem with that was the price an
for a bike.:lecturef_smilie: i was hoping the red would call me or the blue.:mad: I am spyder lover of Lava Bronze tan seat spyder:thumbup:

I took what they had on the :spyder2: with the equipment I wanted.

2008-Silver--only color available at the time I purchased.
2009--Red--I did order that one.
2010--Black--only color available on the RT-S
2011--Silver--only color they had left in the 2011 A & C package.

[Tx web rider]

well my choice was yellow then yellow then yellow then yellow and finally yellow but the dealer had a blue rts a black and silver rs and a used white rs so i got a yellow


and i love the color

[Spydee8]

Told my hubby any color but red. I had a red car for years, and wanted something different. When we walked into the dealership, there it was, the most beautiful sight I had ever seen!! And wouldn't you know it, it was red...lol!! Actually, I do think it's very visible, and that's good for safety concerns. I do love the white, though! But all in all, very happy with Spydee :D.

[GloryRyders]

The Red and Black RS in 2009 called my wife's name when she first saw it but when it came time to "upgrade" to the RT the sun was shining through the showroom window on the Pearl White Ltd and it was "all she wrote". :roflblack:

[TexasSpyder]

Lava Bronze Tan seat from the first time I saw it in the brochure. Reinforced when I saw it in person.

J. D.

[Blue Star]

Not at all. I would have bought any color that was priced right. Learned long ago that you can get it painted. I was lucky to find a Orbit Blue at the right price, but the next bike was yellow (my wife's favorite)

[FrankPa]

They come in a color other than RED? I did not know that...

[Netminder]

I liked the blue, until the lava bronze came out, then I was sold!

[Mr. White]

I ordered BR1 and waited two months for him to come in. Well worth the wait.

:spyder2:

[harrypottar]

it was the lava bronze with tan seat that finally sold me(hugh influence) , it just so different and classy looking.

[Wiredux]

I wanted green but could not get an RT in green so I went with blue.

[Cruzr Joe]

Got the Lava Bronze, had the option of what color seat and went with the Black, no regrets, we love it.

Went to Cowtown to buy a red and a little old lady rode out on their last one and we arrived. Wife liked the blue better. Who knew we would own two blue RTS roadsters.

[MidLifeCrisis]

I said any color but blue and the boss wanted the white Limited and SE5 was a requirement. A big bargain came along in blue with SM5, so the boss got used to it. :p

Ivor:spyder: Definitely agree with you about the Lava Bronze! :2thumbs: It was the only color for us! It seems like a lot of folks have the white 2012's but we just love the color of the L.B. Can't wait for it to arrive from the dealer. :yes::yes:

[shroth]

I loved the white from the day I first saw it. Bought it, love it, can't get off it........& don't need to upgrade next year!!

[Ivorspyder]

You will love it when you get it.After 2 months with it have no regrets.Think it's the best and fastest color.

[spyderspyke]

I had to have a blue RS.I went to several dealers to find one but I got what I wanted.

[paulbrinker]

When we decided to buy, it was the pearl white that absolutely got our attention. That is how we ended up with the limited.

[Luckyme]

Lava Bronze with Tan Seat. I saw a picture of it, and wow.........started looking for a Spyder. That was the only color combination I wanted at the time.

[Tierhog]

Not one bit... Cough cough. Lol

[flaggerphil]

Both of us wanted blue from the beginning and that's what we got. Neither of us like the LTD's colors.

[BitSlayer]

We had pretty much settled on the Perl White before going in for visibility reasons. Once we saw it, there was no other color to consider.

[spydercowboy]

We got the white to go with the white car, truck and Harley. I would sure like to have the tan seat though!

[denviola]

Wife and I were waiting and watching, hoping to see a Lava Bronze with tan seat locally before making a decision. Local dealers said they could get them but were not stocking the high end bike due to costs. When the BRP incentives came out, they became unavailable locally - one dealer tried very hard for us and tried to get one from another sales district, just couldn't do it as they sold rapidly with the incentives. I drove several hundred miles to get one and trailer it home last weekend. We are not disappointed, it is just gorgeous, especially in the sun! The dealer told us they have several bronze with black seat as they thought the tan seat model would not sell.

[Bob Denman]

So now we need to see some pictures of your new pride and joy! :thumbup: 53207

[muonwhiz]

As soon as I saw the red, I new I had to have it!

[denviola]

So now we need to see some pictures of your new pride and joy! :thumbup: 53207

Understood, only had it a few days so no real good pics yet. The wife loves it and actually rides it. I've created a monster...... and may need another bike or keep the Harley......

A LOT - I wanted to purchase the Limited Edition with all the Bells and whistles, but they didn't have BLUE

Sooo I had to buy an RT-S and add the GPS. I skipped the luggage inserts, only because I had the option to leave them out of the purchase. i would have otherwise had them included!

[Bob Denman]

Very nice indeed! :thumbup: So now that the plan has been hatched; will you get another bronze/tan to match, or a white one for some contrast? :shocked:
Decisions!

[Moosemanj]

Had to have the Lava Bronze, once I saw it!

[crossbowme]

I went with the best deal - as long as it wasn't chartreuse! I do like the brown one though.

[donnellpj]

Absolutely affected our decision.

We are a white car household, (except for my black truck,... ahem), so the Pearl White was right in the wheel house!

My wife really liked the blue too,...but we both agreed to the Pearl, the rest is history...

[A1A]

I was willing to settle for any silver color.

[denviola]

Very nice indeed! :thumbup: So now that the plan has been hatched; will you get another bronze/tan to match, or a white one for some contrast? :shocked:
Decisions!

Wife says she will share - for now.....
Guess I better start saving my spare change. One Limited is enough tho, he said while waiting for the 2013 models and colors.....
