WideSam Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I was just wondering if other subaru model owners have a "fastest" colour. I know amongst Legacy owners, silver is the generally accepted one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Pete Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Scoobs are of course WR blue, even though I've had the slower silver and black colours, never had a blue one though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizmo Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 VX has to be Venetian Red - well, mine will be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'm going to put a stripe on my silver impreza so obviously that will be faster than blue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevell Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Haha this is a joke we have on a local forum any subaru that's not wr blue has been de mapped lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richr Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Stealthy Silver is obviously the fastest as it has less wind resistance due to the light colour Blue and Black are heavy colours so saps all tha precious BHP :D Why do you think Mercedes paint their F1 car Silver ;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSam Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Haha, brilliant responses chaps! I think the blue/silver might need to be tested... There's not 2 standard imprezas in blue and silver going to Santa Pod in July is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Ask me a few weeks ago and it wouldve been standard. Not anymore [emoji38] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSam Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 I really am curious now! Surely if theres a genuine difference in paint weight, the car that gets polished the most would win? Or, as Savage said, the rustiest! I've definitely thought far too much into this. It's probably due to my hangover/the weather meaning I can't do anything to my car :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Early classics are probably the lightest not just the ra (rust altered) versions [emoji5] due to having a lot off ally bits (bonnet , wish bones ect) and no abs or air bags . My v1 sti was 1220 kg with 280 bhp and a close ratio jdm box out of the factory I'd imagine it would have been a contender for one of the quickest standard scoobs ...... Plus it's silver lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Plus it's silver lol Nuff said 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ven Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Nah,ruled out,cheetahs for example are the quickest land animal due to BLACK spots :P Also black cars get you hotter quicker in summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 They have legs. We have wheels. Sounds invalid. So not only are black cars slower buy they're also prone to cooking the driver. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ven Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I am sure its statistically proven that silver is the safest colour! Because you cant drive quick enough to have an accident :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richr Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Nah,ruled out,cheetahs for example are the quickest land animal due to BLACK spots :P Also black cars get you hotter quicker in summer The cheetahs main colour is silver under neath the top coat Just think how fast they would be if they DIDNT have black spots :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideSam Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Although we musn't forget, no matter how much slower a black car is... Red calipers will ALWAYS add 20bhp! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ven Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Just off to Halfords................slowly ..................to get my red paint :D Or should it be silver :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Ha ha I changed my BLACK vacuum lines for red cos it makes it faster too. Basically striping all the black out of my car. I'm looking for white tyres if you know of some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
