    White with black trim looks bad ass. White with chrome looks okay, :rolleyes:.
    Silver with black looks equally good. Unfortunately, silver is the most common Tacoma color in the world. Everywhere you go, silver, silver, silver.

    I think you get a deeper gloss with white than silver. The silver looks kind've cloudy, but it does have gloss.

    The trick is to buy a color that isn't frequently seen around, one that makes you say "Damn, that's a nice (insert favorite curse word here) color!!"

    My vote would be Speedway Blue. If you wait for the 09's, then I say Green!

    95% of the Tacomas I see on the road are silver (mine included). Was the same back in 02 when I got my first one.

    I mean it's a good color, but as Homer would say, "Borrrrr-ing" when they ALL seem to be that color...

    I think boring is good. It’s inconspicuous which is good for traveling over the speed limit or parking in a public place.

    White looks good, but I went with the silver. I like the way it hides the everyday dirt.

    I would have to say silver. I had a white Beretta about 12 years ago and that thing showed everything. I will never own another white vehicle.

    A GM product's paint doesn't even compare to Toyota's paint whatever color. Based on my past chevy's anyway.;)

    Good thing if you like Toyota. Look at a 12-15 year old GM in white or especially silver and see if it's not very faded or there's not more rust showing than paint. That above response was rather poorly worded.:rolleyes:
