Canada's most popular colors

We have less colors here and no Carbon or Meteor Gray. No Quartz interior either. The blue is different, too.

White and red seems to be cars that moved the quickest. Blue ones just seem to stay at dealers. Black ones too.

So what colors seem the most popular ones in your area.

In the Greater Toronto Area (Canada) the following colors order are what's moving, from most to least: Satin Silver, Premium White, Indigo Blue, Red, then Black. The 1st three come with the Ebony interior and the last 2 come in the parchment.

If we could only get the Carbon Gray...

When I order mine soon, I'll be getting black with parchment. Though I'd prefer black with ebony, or charcoal with ebony...but as you all know by now, not available in Canaduh.

In Ottawa, I've seen several PWP, SS, 1 Ebony, 2 Blue, and no reds. I've actually only seen a handful of TSXs.

can't believe the meteor silver isn't a big seller in the USA - it is an awesome colour. Then again, my white with black is cool too. I had 2 guys comment on the caqr while refueling 2 weeks ago - one on each side of the car.

Here where I live its mostly silver or red.

When I went to Toronto last week I went to a Petro-Canada gas station for a fill up and a guy with a silver TSX filling up his car commented on my Artic Blue TSX. He asked were I was from and told me my TSX's color was nice. I told him I was from the States and was visiting my family up in Toronto.

My TSX was one of the first ones on the road here in Regina and it's Milano Red (with the Parchment Interior)...definitely eye-catching (as one of my co-workers put it, "That's not just red...that's F***ING RED!"). It was awesome getting stopped in parking lots and on the street by people wanting to know about the car.

I see another Red TSX on my way to work every morning (going north on Elphinstone while I go south...who are you mystery TSX lady? ). I've also spotted a white one (with the "Acura" & "TSX" badging removed from the trunk, tinting & body kit...looks VERY sharp) and a silver one with tinting and the gold emblem kit (also looks sharp).

I haven't spotted a single black one on the road (BTW, I think Black with Parchment Leather looks awesome!), and only one blue one; I'm not very impressed with the blue we have here in Canada...it's almost purple - but at least we get the heated mirrors

Again, everyone sing, "Oh Canada...Our home & native land..."

Oh Gomez, I think that the Milano Red is one of the most gorgeous colors for the TSX too!!!

I didn't get it just because I wanted Ebony interior... and I worry that a red, head-turning, sporty TSX would get me tickets all the time!!! LOL So I went with NHB which I think is drop dead gorgeous too... MR makes the car sooo HOT but the NHB makes it very classy and sporty... it's so wonderful that different colors give the TSX such different styles and character!

ive got the indigo blue, its the nicest ive seen around when clean, but impossible to keep clean. ive seen a couple whites, second fav, a black and a couple silvers. the silver looks too much like the old TL in silver to me, hard to tell what kinda car it is.

From the ones I've seen around the GTA, this is the order from most popular to least.

silver,white,blue, red, black (I havent seen one black TSX yet!).

I think that its more about the interior, with most people optiong for ebony over parchment. Otherwise I think I would have seen more blacks on the road.

Hehe. You speak the truth. I was in Vancouver for a few days last month. I saw 3 TSX's there, all of them PWP. Around here I think the popular colour ranking would be silver, black, white, indigo (BLURPLE!), red. I've only seen one other blurple besides mine, but I drive by it every day on my way to work. The only reds I've seen have been on dealers lots.

Funny how that works isn't it? As I said in my earlier post, the only other red one I've seen here in Regina drives past me everyday (I'm going South...she's going North)
