    I was origonally looking for either a white or radiant red at the time, but once I saw the speedway blue in person, I had to have it. Probably cause I'm an attention whore. :D

    I voted Speedway blue but I think Timberland Mica is even worse. I love my Black Sand Pearl but sometimes wish I have gotten Super White - those are very sharp

    That is BY FAR my favorite color on Tacomas. I can't believe they don't offer it anymore. The color is sick!!!

    Yeah last August I was going to order that color but I was told that they no longer to offer that color. So I go with Silver. Blue is my favorite color, speedway blue is okay with me. But I like dark blue better.

    yup, I went in for a new celica in 2000 and was looking for a silver. I ended up walking out with the same blue. A few years later I walked in looking for a silver taco and walked out with another blue.

    what about that forest green color they now have? Ive seen a few tacomas with it.. i dont really think the color itself is all that bad.. just doesnt look right on a tacoma IMO...

    i kinda like all of them though.. just not a big fan of white cars/trucks.. even if theyre sport edition and so on, it still makes me feel like they're a part of a fleet or the base line or rental.. ya know..?

    Not true. Black paint absorbs more sun light causing your air conditioner to work harder and therefore causes you to lose horsepower.

    A white or silver truck would be faster.
