From what I've been seeing, the black MS-P will be the identical color of the Black 2002 P5. Black Mica I believe. It looks very nice in person, kind of like a darker IS300 gray.

seen them both....and it would be a HARD choice....and here is MY reasoning.

Black...looks really good when its CLEAN...of curse that actually lasts about 10 minutes....black shows every speck of dirt....thus its a lot of work to keep really looking good all the time...

Orange....well I would have liked the color a LOT more had it NOT been metal flake or Mica.....I prefre bright colors like that in a monochromatic color...like the yellow is.

SO, although I am not super crazy about it....I would pick the orange....for the simple reason that it will be easier to take care of and keep looking nice.

Haven't seen any in person, but black is always in style.

At least with organized crime.

If you're in Canada it won't matter because we only get one colour. most likely it will be orange.

Really only one colour ? How do you know that.....? I am in Toronto and have ordered a orange one anyway.

I can honestly say I would take the orange over the black for 2 reasons right off the bat.

1) How many Orange cars do you see riding around?
2) I live in Florida. Black gets damn hot in the summer time and it is entirely too difficult to keep clean.

Good luck and let us know what happens.

Hey guys..

Would you guys know if this coming 'Spicy Orange' colour will be "metallic" or not?
I believe that the blue for Mp3 was metallic.

I hope it has the same amount of sparkles as the Yellow Miata SE:p

I wouldn't care what color it was, because my first mod would be to paint that S.O.B. Laser Blue Mica! :D

i like the black better becuase black, bronze, or gunmetal rims look so nice on black rides

Sweet. I like the idea of gunmetal on the Orange. I think the OZ Superleggras would look really good.

Just got word from my dealer that the orange is the only color offered in Canada.
