Default Best T/A color

Looking to buy a T/A but can't decide on the color. Initially I wanted a black one, but I changed my mind to Blue because blck is too common and my frst car was blue. Burgundy is also a really big choice. Found a silver one with a GMMG already in it. But now for the color preference, wich would you choose?

Black is the only color. SOM also rocks.

I've never been the biggest fan of NBM, personally.

You get like 5 shades of blue if you choose the navy blue based on the dirtiness the sun and what angle you are at. I really like it after seeing it everyday on mine.
