2006 Brazen Orange Or 2005 Black?

Ok I am wondering about the options I have in colors for the GTO. I am looking to get one in the next month or so and I am torn between two colors. I would like a Black 2005 GTO because the 2006 is not that different than the 2005 and the price is still high on the 2006 models. I looked at a 2006 GTO and loved the color Brazen orange on it. I am Buying the GTO from a dealer regardless because I am still young and this is my first new car, but I want to know if I like the color Brazen Orange should I go with the 2006 or just stick with the Black on Black 2005? It is a hard choice I think but will I get better financing on an 06' or better with the 05? Oh questions, questions, and more questions. I need some answers if you have them and would like to hear your opinions so shout out and let me know.

Appreciate the help.

Get Torrid Red, it is a little known fact that it is the fastest color made.

Brazen Orange is awesome color and was only an 06 color which will date the car which IMO is not a bad thing with cars.Its not like knowing all the music at the grocery store.Just get a GTO you will be pleased with it I havent seen one I couldnt live with.

Actually in all honesty the black will be a bear to keep looking good. You can't beat the look of a clean black car, but there is nothing that looks as bad as a dirty black car either.

If you are torn between orange and black and can't decide you should take that into consideration.

Actually, I found a State Trooper in Virginia that advised me that he was aware of this fact...

I'd go for Black if you are more interested in "Go" and Orange if your game is "Show".

That's my feeling...

I drive on a fairly busy interstate at the same time every morning. There's a guy in a yellow Charger Daytona R/T that I see coming in the other direction at the same time.

Without fail he either pops his high beams at me or I to him when we see each other.

Bright color cars (Orange, Yellow and Red) jump out from a distance.
