Hello all, I don't own a Mazda3 yet but will soon! I'm thinking about the sedan GT, but can't decide on sunlight silver or titanium grey. Any opinions?

Hey, Mark.? Both colours are great looking IMHO.? Personally, I would go with silver only because if you look at the cars at our meet about 50% of them are tit grey.? So you get a bit of a "unique" factor.
btw, welcome to our forum!!

Sedan? Noooooooooooooooooo!
Just kidding.
Silver is more unique like Tony said. The last meet I went to, they were all tit. grey or blue. I was cool in black.

Welcome fellow newbie. Well the choice for me was silver as I thought the silver sport Gt look awwwwesome. But basically look at both and then decide...cause your the one who will own and drive it. Good luck in your search for the best car around. Great value for you dollars.

welcome welcome!
silver is a very popular color for many cars, but you'll find yourself feeling special in a silver 3 instead of a tit grey 3...lol...

silver! If you do a lot of highway driving.....you'll appreciate the color. Won't show the dings as much as the titanium grey.

GO WITH TIT GREY, SILVER IS HARDER FOR OTHER CARS TO SEE IN BRIGHT SUNLITE, AND TIT GREY IS WAY EASYER TO KEEP KLEAN. THE SILVER COLLECTS A LOT OF DUST N GRIT THAT SHOWS UP SO YOU ARE ALWAYS DUSTING OFF TO LOOK CLEAN. GOOD CHOICE ON THE SEDAN!

I agree with the choice on the sedan.  I think dirt and grit would show up more on a tit grey than a silver. I'm speaking on experience of having a dark car! I say go for the silver because like everyone else has said... there are a lot of tit greys out on the road. Also, a Silver sedan with tint is pretty sweet. |

Well I'm now leaning toward silver but ultimately I'll have to decide when I see the colors in person. I'm on my break at work dreaming about my mazda3, I can't wait |

well titanium grey is really good in hiding the dirt by the fact that as long as it doesn't rain........ well after it rains, good luck not cleaning even if it's silver... i'd say.. just go with the color that u like, washing the car will become an interest, not a hassle when this car is such a fantasic looking car  |
