regardless, it may be between those three colors. most likely Phanton Black if not WW, and if not WW then GG.
A couple people also commented about blue being flashy

How does blue stick out? It's relatively unique on the road to white and black, I'll give you that, but blue doesn't stick out in the same way that red or orange or yellow sticks out. Blue is a very mellow color and I don't think it's flashy at all. If anything black or white stand out more because they are known as more 'swagger' colors.

But I agree with others, get the car you like the most, these threads should help you decide:

If you are getting an mr, then I would suggest the GG. It fits the mr's more mature look. And it looks good with the leather interior. Even though the mr is a little heavier, having a quieter and more comfortable car is great if it will be your daily driver

Thanks for the links man! ill be definitely taking a good look at these links. I really like graphite gray, love how its dark and looks real badass when the rims are blacked out. About Octane Blue, its not that it sticks out, it doesnt compared to the other colors. It is mellow. But its more about what ill be more comfortable with, so thats why im choosing colors that are more chill and not sticking out, White definitely sticks out, and thats why im debating if i should get that color, if not WW then its going to be GG or PB. PLus its the MR im probably going to get. GG looks really sweet on the MR's i saw it at a Mitsu dealer and it looked sweet. And i test drove a Wicked White evo. Which i enjoyed alottt!

If it helps, here's what happened with me

The first Evo X I saw in person was GG. It was in the showroom and the shade of the lighting made it gleam at me.

Years later I'm working at that same dealership now. I've seen all colors of the Evo, and they all looked great in the showroom.

When it came time to buy my RA, I started to like the WW for the same reasons that everyone else likes it. Unfortunately, there wasn't a WW RA for another 3 months, and I didn't hate the GG, I just thought I might get bored with it. I decided to take the GG that was on our lot anyway.

When it came out of make-ready, the sun was down and the moonlight just made it shine and I fell in love all over again. Everytime an Evo customer comes by, the GG catches my eye. I'm bored of the WW and I think it was just a "fad" for me.

I think whatever catches your eye first IN PERSON is the color you should get. I went back and forth, but still ended up with my first choice, and I don't regret it to this day.

GG is perfect imo. WW is cool, but too common around here in cali. PB was actually my first choice too, but i'm happy i went with a GG just to have a slight contrast between the body and vents/front.

Plus your car can look like this (sorry i ***** this photo as much as i can cuz its my favorite of my car!)

I'd get GG if you are going with the MR. Apex Silver might be a good choice as well if you can find one. As others have said, the choice is yours and yours alone.
