I have to believe crystal blue metallic is right up there, if not #1. It took my dealer so much time to find mine in June of 1999, that I ended up getting the 2000 model in Dec. of 1999, and they had to go to Pensylvania to get it. But the black and red 1999 five speeds sat there till about the time I bought mine.

That's the only color you could get tan interior on, right? I know that every other exterior color on 5th gens has black interior.

I could vote for Crystal Blue (I have one) but will agree I have not seen as many in the dark green (actually 1). As to the white-there are so many variants that I cannot put that up as high.
As for getting the car-in March 1999, when I bought mine, there were 9 East of the Mississippi and we had to go to Ohio for it (I wanted the SS) as the dealers here in PA would not trade another color for the CBM. Yes, they were a tough buy.

Where I live the most popular is the red, black, and white.
I'd say the green and blue are the least popular.
