Not that my opinion will change anybody's mind..But the Pewter (H2) or the Boulder gray (H3) IS IMHO, THE BEST COLOR FOR ALL OCCATIONS..Hides dirt a lot longer than any of the others colors and also IMHO, it speaks of ellegance and class...no bout adout it[sm=smiley16.gif]

RE: what color do you recommend
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. [sm=bling.gif]

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)

Not that my opinion counts. I saw some beautiful deep dark sapphire looking blue paint jobs at the Sewell dealership. Saw a pearlized pink that looked good considering I hate pink. They also had a bronzish/gold looking one. And they had some burgundy ones. All along though my favorite has been the black with white as a close second. The man person has been partial to either black or yellow. So we brought home a Victory Red one. Didn't even realize it was a special/limited edition color. It sure does look sharp though!!
