Well as I’ve got a Blue LCV on order I guess that’s my favourite colour although would have also taken an ivory one if it had been offered. I also think white is underrated aswell especially if you get the roof painted like the other two tone ones. Much easier to clean the white car as it doesn’t show up all the marks. We also have a black lcv and whilst looks great clean I find it always looks grubby as it shows up everything. Also feels hotter when getting inside compared to my white SZ5.
As you say "down to individual taste". However I've had two and feedback as follows - Kinetic Yellow is bright and no-one could realistically claim "Sorry mate I didn't see you" It's also the colour that Suzuki use in their press and promotional campaigns. Only bad news was folk would say to me "Saw your car parked outside the ASDA" or "Your car was spotted outside the sexual health clinic last Tuesday at 09.30" - so zero chance of driving around incognito. It didn't however show the road dirt as badly as you might believe. No.2 Jimny is blue and is anonymous by comparison - which some family members prefer as a low key method of arriving at venues. Kinetic Yellow was very popular at resale time and attracted a buyers premium. As for some other colours - definitely more attractive to the more mature customer? You pay your money so buy what gives you pleasure - at the end of the day the colour doesn't make the Jimny any faster, reliable or economical
I think the Jimny is a car of so much character it looks good in all colours.
Yellow is not for me personally but I can see why folks like it.
I initially wanted ivory but actually ended up with white and love it!
