IMO:
Champ White > Rallye Red > Crystal Black > Boost Blue > Sonic Gray

Liking that red a lot more on the new design! 🔥

Everytime I see a red 11th gen... I like it.

It may end up becoming my first choice.

Same here...the black trim on it really pops. Something about that dual contrast just looks right on it.

While the Honda Red is a beautiful colour, and a very nice red, nothing beats Champ White on a Type R , it is just so perfect IMO. If I could not get white I would get the red.

It really is! Hoping to be able to order Champ White but I'd be just as happy with Red or Gray...used to think the gray looked like unpainted primer, but it grew on me here...I'd nix the red mirror caps myself

In general, red is my favorite car color.
But with the red exterior accents and interior, IMO it's too much on the FL5.
White it is. :)
That red carpet gonna be hell to keep clean ^^
High-wall inserts will help...some

I would probably like a pure white CTR as well as Champ White, as Champ White has a bit of a tinge to it. Both would be nice.

I'm a fan of the off-white for the Type R myself 👍

Check out these pics posted by Toprarnen...the lighting makes it look pure white

And just to be clear, I didn't take those or post them originally, I just pulled them from another thread.

Saw a championship white with true white wheels, noticeable difference in coloring, but it still looked decent. My preference right now is to go for some bronze 5 or 6 spoke wheels, a throwback to some classic Enkeis or something

sounds great, will compliment well with the white

I like these PX-10s

yeah it does look different under the different lighting. The Champ white is an homage to their racing history so it has some meaning, while pure white is just white I guess.
