Soon I'll have to pre-order my future GR86 and I'm still very undecided about the color.
The only 2 colors that I find interesting for my tastes are Trueno and Neptune Blue.

Trueno:
It looks very dark to me, although it changes a lot from the photos in the sun to those in the shade. In the sun it is a gorgeous color, a pearly mix of blue and purple. I like very much. In the shade, however, it is a very dark blue, almost dull. In the shadows, the lines seem to be lost

Pro:

Pearly, iridescent color even if you look at it very closely​

Wide possibility of customization and combination with other colors for graphics or tuning (bronze or white rims, white roof, red, lime green or fluorescent yellow details etc.)​

Cons:

Dark color, inconspicuous and not very original.​

The design of the curves of the body doesn't stand out on the dark colors.​

Any understated body kit won't be noticed much​

Neptune:
Light color, youthful, rather original even if in the various photos found on the net it's very different from photo to photo.
It's not clear to me the exact shade of this color and any reflections or plays of light produced by this finish.
It looks to all intents and purposes a pastel color, full, without pearlescent or metallic effects. It seems a rather "mundane" color in its simplicity.
In some photos it looks like a light blue with electric and bright tones. In other photos it seems the color used in the bathroom of the boys in the children's schools, a light blue and rather washed out and discolored. It doesn't seem to vary much based on the light but more perhaps based on the camera's setting tone?

Pro:

Seemingly less sophisticated and less complex quality color - easier to repaint and fix in case of damage​

Very flashy and youthful, it lends itself well to elaborate and aggressive cars​

Any body kit will be prominently displayed​

Cons:

Color too different from photo to photo to be evaluated objectively.​

Highly coveted and requested color, therefore potentially unoriginal​

Can any of the owners of good cheer do me the courtesy to take some photos, even very close, to these 2 colors and post them below?
Collect as much as possible so that anyone who wants to deepen and understand the shades of these colors will be able to have clearer ideas about it


Thanks so much indeed to anyone will help me on this deep study 😅

Damn I hope I can preorder the car soon too

Personally I've decided I'll stick with white, after having my current car which is black, I want something that is more "fresh" under the sun, and also I plan to wrap it and white will be the best looking combination for what I have in mind.

Have you seen the video from a japanese channel that shows all the color variants properly? You can get a better idea with that video.

If you want your car to be noticed get the neptune, otherwise the trueno blue looks awesome under the sun, while being "normal" in other conditions. You can always get it fully wrapped to protect the paint and so on

Yeah, I was on the fence between Neptune Blue and Halo White for along time. But in the end, I think I'll end up with Halo White, I had it before (it's simple but looks nice especially with the flakes in the sun), I really don't want to stand out with Neptune Blue, I find that having a bright color/or standing out most likely brings bad things to your car from other people(jealous or just some reason to do something to your car, IMO you know).

Like OP I was a little on fence between the 2 blues as well.
Definitely knew I want a colour and not just a shade.
Not too into bright red cars, so that left me with the blues.

Neptune a little to "hey look at me!" for myself so trueno is my choice.

If you don't care about the fact Neptune is flashy, then there's also the thought of it being a little bit of a trendy colour and may not be "cool" many years down the road, trueno is just a blue that will be fine forever imo.

This is exactly the answer I was looking for. Thanks for your considerations, absolutely shareable. Before deciding definitively, however, I would really like to be able to see some zoom photos on the Neptune color because I think it may still have some changes for me

I put a deposit down on a Neptune blue. Was on the fence about white, classic and clean but my last two cars have been white and I just wanted some color. Trueno was interesting at first but I'm not personally a fan of the purple hue. If it was just straight Navy I probably would have gone with it. Neptune being "trendy" was a concern but it's pretty close to BMW's Laguna seca, and Porsche's Shark blue so I think it'll stay relevant as a sports car color

This is exactly what I wanted it - I love Laguna Seca, Marina blue, etc on the BMW's and love the same shades on other cars.

Hopefully mine gets here in the next few weeks.

More neutral colors allow for more 'fun' color customization in wheel options though, so there's that. Unless you want to wrap it.

This was a dilema for me as well, I wanted a color and not a fan of red. I lean heavily to the neptune. It just looks more interesting. There are a boat load of cars in dark blue metallic out there, but only a handful of light blue ones.

Maybe, I'm seriously debating putting white wheels on the Neptune. I've only seen one picture of it but it looked pretty good

 

[Gillormon]

In these photos, the Neptune seems always the same hue, always an electric light blue.

In other photos instead, the hue is very variable and pass from electric light blue, to a washed out light and shy blue...

I'm very hesitant 😅

The possibility of color not going out of style doesn't bother me at all.
I got a VW Scirocco viper green 12 years ago when viper green was definitely not in fashion but I loved it as a color until the last day I had it.

So I'm not interested in color fashion, but I want a color that doesn't tire me and bore me over time and I'm Neptune looks right even though I really like the purple reflections of Trueno

It's really difficult 😅 but thx to all for your consideration and tips 😜

 

[Maverik]

Damn that Neptune is hot every time I see it. Promo pictures just don't do it justice. 3ish more weeks until mine is supposed to be at the dealer

 

[Karlosak]

Yes, the Neptune blue is sexy AF

Damn dude I have exactly the same thoughts.. I’m currently checking every video with both Colors in it and I still can’t decide. The Japanese video with all Color’s in it left me tending more toward grey and black again. On the other hand a sports car shouldn’t be in so called boring Color’s.
And I like blue cars. But the trueno blue is easier to get accepted by Mission Control 😶
