I think they look best in white, red and soag
They're ALL that colour though ... I double-take when I see one in Slipstream, Regal Peacock (admittedly due to rarity + recognition), Light My Fire or Some Like It Hot. :)

*edit*
OK not Regal Peacock, as we're talking VF2 & it was NLA from MY15 ...

Unsurprising though I was originally looking at White.

White here. All my previous cars were silvers and greys and there was a real glut on the roads with silver cars in previous years.

I purchased white for the first time for 3 reasons:
1) I liked the look and colour combination introduced by high end European cars in previous years of white duco and gloss black wheels
2) A white car on a 40+ degree day is somewhat cooler than a darker shade
3) It wasn’t silver or grey

I agree, every VF2 Redline I saw when buying last year was red, white or black. Need some variety!

If you think back to classic HDTs, majority is red, white, black or silver..

They are 'safe' colours. Most hero colours tend to 'age'...Not all...but some

A hero colour is always a hero colour in that particular model.
VT SS's have started to appreciate already, and Tiger Mica is THE colour for a VT SS.

Blue Meanie, anyone?

There seem to be enough people who somehow like Spitfire that it's going to be a VF2 Thing in future (although IMHO there's no long-term collectability future for these due to electric cars coming along & destroying the availability of petrol).

That colour should have been called "**** hot green"
Still makes me head turn every time I see one. The black highlights, and red calipers go so well.
