    I wanted to start a thread about this as I am still on the edge of deciding whether to get the Taco or not. I am on the fence about colors as well. So wanted to see if people like theirs or if they would like to change it, why.

    I personally like the quicksand, but only in the OR, not in the Sport. I like the Blue in the Sport, but not OR. I like the Magnetic anything, but wish it was slightly lighter color, or that primer color look. Red, I have never liked. White is nice, but Ive owned white before and dont want another one. I like silver to, but want a diff color. Black is too hard to keep nice. Inferno is interested to say the least.

    Thanks! Let me know.

    It's stuff like this here that makes it increasingly difficult to do proper research on TW. 90% of threads and posts are utter shit!

    Color is personal preference and will not effect performance

    I suppose the OP can do what a number of others have done recently. Change mind, return to dealership, take it up the behind from dealership, buy another colour, rinse and repeat. Not trying to be a jerk about it, just don't get it.

    I got the quicksand and I really like the color. Side note: you barely notice dirt on this thing.

    I suppose 90% was a bit generous. My "trying to believe in mankind" got the best of me.

    I think we just answered OPs question. Don't concern too much about the color, but what you will do to it to make it better.
