buying used or new off the lot: what's more important color or options?

It's been awhile since we've played "Ron Asks Questions"... so here goes:

If you're buying a used car, or 1 off of a lot, what's more important to you? Color or options?

necessary options get priority (upholstery, power controls, stereo, moonroof, etc)

then color

then extras (such as nav, heated seats, auto climate, parking sensors, etc)

Options first. Certain ones are deal breakers. That being said, I wouldn't buy a color I didn't like just because it had the options I wanted.

are you asking me that? no, it was just a curiosity. That being said, my "tragiblazer" hasn't been back to the dealer or to a mechanic except for a few oil changes in the last 3 years.....

How's your U-Boat doing? Still leaking like a drunk on a Saturday night?
