Hmmm, from the responses, I'd say that...

Red is manly even with an automatic, but mostly in a coupe.

White is kinda neutral, but a little more stout with an M6.

Black is definitely a man's car, as is dark blue, but becomes a little frilly with an A6.

Atomic Orange is Badass with transmission type optional.

Carlisle Blue is girly, with or without an M6.

Yellow may not be legal in all states.

I appreciate all the input fellas...

I think I've read enough - why not get a 2 tone.
Wouldn't 2 manly colors be better than one?

Choose black so you will spend more time cleaning it than driving it!! Your wife or girl friend will enjoy having you around the house more.

Sorry I just don't understand the desire for silver cars in general and yet there are so many out there.

Lemans Metallic Blue with M6. A name with racing heritage in the name, it's gotta be faster than those other colors.

My color of my car doesn't define my masculinity. Sounds like something someone with a small **** or tiny muscles would say. I remember the purple 4th gen TA's and C5's I love those colors.
