Well, we didn't end up with the "Cheesy Mac" car. And my primary choice, the rich metallic blue, wasn't to be either. The Subaru is silver.
And it occured to me, as I walked to lunch and watched the cars driving past, that's not bad. Because the problem with most rich car colors is that they end up looknig dated awfully fast. I looked around at the few rich metallic blue cars in the lot, and I could tell, by the particular shades that were used, the old ones and the new ones.
Silver is forever. Or something corny like that. And it doesn't show dirt very much.
Of course, if I'd gotten the STi ...
... but, then, remarkably enough, an STi drove by. And, y'know what? I'm glad I didn't get it. Because, really, you look a little stupid driving a souped up rally car with hood scoop and huge spoiler and all ... when you're wearing a white dress shirt and tie. Unless you look like James Bond, and this particular driver didn't (and I certainly don't).
So. Two more reasons to like what I got.
