Hello fellow members. Grateful for this forum. Going to buy soon and not sure on getting either the Silver or the Red. Which color Rav4 did you get or thinking of getting. Also, the pros and cons of either Silver or Red ??? Thanks for your kindness and patience with my English vocabulary.
 
Silver Sky Metallic, easy to keep looking clean without having to wash or dust it every day, I like the looks of the darker colors, almost went with Ruby Flare Pearl, but it would have been against my better judgement, I have better things to do than keeping it looking perfect! :laugh
 
I went ruby red to change things up a bit. Last few cars have been white, gray, silver etc. Looked at the new Camry at the same time and really liked the bright blue with black roof. Middle aged crisis I guess! Silver is way easier to keep looking clean. My son has an 02 Camry in silver and always looks good.
 
Ordered a magnetic gray metallic adventure (hasn’t come in yet). I believe the magnetic gray in the adventure trim is a Hawai’i exclusive but I wasn’t thrilled on any of the adventure colors in the brochure until the salesman presented the gray option to me.

My only other comment is that I believe the ruby red pearl color is a extra cost option.
 
Color of RAV

OK so I'm the oddball of the group.
My Limited is Blueprint with darkish gray interiors.
Must be dusted every other day, (don't you laugh at me).
The wife sez, "that's your job."
It does look very elegant and looks like black at night.
Just might lose a few pounds washing it.:surprise. I can hear the snickering.

You're not the only oddball-I have a Blueprint XLE with black interior and I love it!
I love how the blue metallic paint looks in the sun.

Sucks that I just found my first ding in the driver's side door though. Someone obviously smacked it with their door. Creased the door and everything-took a good hit.
 
Blue flame on my XLE. Previous car was black so I wanted something that popped. I think blueprint is great as well (was my second choice) but figured out that I prefer that blue flame is a matte/solid color rather than sparkly.
 
I've chosen the silver with black roof. I'd originally wanted a trail but the white roof put me off, only having seen one at the dealers it looked (to me) as if they'd left the protective plastic on the car! As soon as I saw the black roof/silver combo I decided that's the one I wanted - being a hybrid is a nice bonus :)
