Yes it did, which is why it took me 3 years to find the right car. Haha, well worth the long wait, Starfire Pearl baby!

I think color matters. It helps you feel comfortable with your car. I'm glad we have moved on from Henry Ford and his model T where "You can get it in any color you want - as long as it is black."

Color Matters. I was trying to find a star fire pearl 6MT, but an ad came up for a 6MT desert sage metallic and I couldnt resist.

I like the rarity of the color so I got that instead.

Same here! I thought I settled for Tungsten, really wanted white but this car had everything else, so I "settled" for Tungsten Pearl. I actually really like it now that I've owned it and will buy it again. I really like that I never know it's dirty until my silver wheels match the gunmetal color on the inside.

Same here. Though, I was buying price more less. At least it isn't black...

The color was one of the most important factor when buying my car

Yes! I think the color of a car contributes immensely to the character of it and creates almost a foundation for what (visual) mods can be done to the car.
