For a GS, nothing even comes close to a Pearl White w/Black Leather, sitting on factory chrome, HID, Spoiler. Even though they made a handful, 1SickLex has one. Other than that, I also really love Black on Black, thats how my Maxima was, but it just gets too annoying, you see every scratch and its almost always dirty. After that I pretty much looked at every other color combo in the same way but to be honest, my green was one of my least favorites. Shows how much I know, http://www.cardomain.com/id/nycgs4, absolutely love it now, have not seen one green GS400 somewhat similar to mine. If anything always no spoiler, sitting on factory 16's, no tint, and someone older driving. Makes mine stand out like crazy.

If you have a garage, and are willing to maintain it, black's good. I had a 99 Camry in a carport. It was pretty tiring keeping it up, especially after the rain. Got a 2k2 Millenium Silver GS3 now.

Factory, black. Modded with a nice kit, nice wheels and a decent tint, silver. The silver looks blah off the lot, but once "primped" up it seems to stand out...

I really want to see the new 2003 Blue Marlin color...no one seems to have it...WTF?

Manuel - Hehehehe...that was funny...."yeah, I have a GS430...cough...GS300....cough..."

Sorry, but that's BEYOND supercheezy...why not just put a "AMG S55" emblem while you're at it?

99' GS3 Spectra Blue! Stands out, loud mouth, get heads to turn and last but not least MVB "Most Valueable BLUE", it's so rare I saw 2 in this colour since I bought mine used last year. I live in Philly. Black and Silver are hot too, but problem with them isn't about the maintainant but individuality, EVERYONE has black and silver in every brand from a Focus to an E-Class. Pickup truck and stationwagon! SUV and Hatchback! Can't stand to be indifferent!

My vote: Spectra Blue (note: it's rare and no longer available in GS)

Millenium Silver looks the best
Especially with some tinted windows.
