The pewter will not show dirt as bad as the red (and look cleaner longer), but the red will look best after a wash/wax... If its a DD, I'd go with the pewter, if a weekend toy, get the red...

I don't see the results of your poll but just be sure she understands that the Mary Kay pink is not an option! Oh, now I see it at the top!

I'd say based on your poll that MAg Red would be the winner

Go with the grey. It won't show dirt and is rare. The red/oak combo looks like every other sports car out there. Reminds me of a Mitsubishi Spyder. Too many mag red ones on the road. Very ordinary.
