So, like the title says... what factory color is your favorite looking on the Elantra? And maybe more important, what color do you think looks the worst?
I was going to make a poll, but there are too many colors and the XD2 colors are different in some cases.
(Oh, and don't get mad if someone calls your color ugly, just remember that white is the best looking color for the XD).
Best Color - WHITE
Worst Color - HAZELNUT (on the new GLS's)

Is there a stock yellow elantra? I know hyundai makes a yellow paint, but i dont know if they do the elantra in it. (see the concepto body design pictures for the 4D) Otherwise I like the Blue :D

Well, in Australia the XD came in yellow, Sunshine Yellow I think. Not here in North America though. Now over there they have a Lime Green and a Gold Savour which are both yellow-like.
Green? Are you talking about the Seashell color on the newer GLS's? Yeah, that's pretty bad also.

Pewter is the best on the 01-03s, but that blue they put on the 04s is just awesome to me.
Absolute worst is the butt-hole brown they're puttin on the 04s now. yeeesh. It makes me cringe. When I was signing the papers on my Santa Fe, there was one of those ugly things sitting next to the desk I was at in the showroom. I had to turn my seat so I would stop looking at it in disgust.

I like white on the the 4 drs & rally red on 5 drs. Pewter looks pretty good on 4 drs too, but I no likey it on the 5 drs for some reason. Why no white 5 drs in America???

should have bought a black one, glad I didn't though for all the dings and scratches on it.
Worst - That green / aqua they offered only in '01 here in Canada, I actually think Hyundai hired the Mob to seek and destroy all models they sold cause I've never seen one on the road

Because Hyundai hates Americans? Probably not, but it's something like that. No White GT's at all, sedan or hatch.

Favourite is Hydrogen Blue... Tidal wave in the States
Least Favourite is Silver Sage.... Sea Shell in the States
Upon inspection of the USA website, GLS Elantra's have entirely poor colour choices. Canada doesn't get Hazelnut, thankfully, but the States can't get the Hydrogen Blue or Midnight Blue or Triton Green for that matter. Of course we Canadians can't get GT sedans, so we still lose out big time.

Pewter is best (but i'm slightly biased, cause they look clean even when they are filthy)
White is worst (sorry james but every one I've ever seen looks dirty even when they aren't)

Champagne is not only the best color, but also the fastest.

Steve, although the HyundaiUSA site says there are only those colors available for the GLS, the site is wrong. I've seen various Tidal Wave GLS's running around here, so I don't know what to tell you. Strange.

That's a true ricer right there, haha.

No worries, I should have known. Hyundai really doesn't seem to seriously keeping their websites accurate and up-to-date. The Canadian site has been basically the same since 2000, just with somewhat revised content for each new model year.

Black is the best. Ocean Blue/Teal and Hazelnut are a tie for me for worst.
