Man, i agonized over this question for a while before ordering. Black has a certain hummerishness - it looks kind of mean, in a way, which fits. The hummer yellow is just plain killer, but its very common. I thought pewter and slate blue didn't look that great in pictures... but the local dealer had a slate blue SUV and it looked absolutely awesome. In Minneapolis they had all the '06 colors but Maroon, and they ALL looked good in their own way... I'm kind of nervous about it, but i ultimately settled on white. there are very few white H2's around here, and it looked clean & diff in its own way at the Minneapolis dealer. I think the final push towards white was a couple of H2's i found on the web with after-retail paint. Painted to look more homogenous (cover some of the lback trim, etc.). What i have in mind is a bit like this one, which i think looks really, really good: white custom H2 on ebay like i said, i'm hoping i don't regret that color choice in a week. can always add a little bling.

thanks guys. i picked up the H2 in white last Thursday, and i don't regret it at all. I do think i'm going to keep the lower-level trim black, as the contrast hides the dirt to some extent. But the rest is going all-white (and i might make them paint the trim black/shiny for the heck of it, as i already paid)
