Mantis, Nitro, Apollo's Chariot, Raptor, Xcelerator, and Goliath stand out as my favorites.

I really like Alpengeist, Batman - The Dark Knight, Kraken and The Georgia Scorcher. My favorite is Montu though. I hate Nitro's. It has too much pink.

You know I actually have not really noticed that much. I do like AC and Raging bull, and the corkscrew at MIA.

The corkscrew at Canobie gets my vote for most out of place color scheme.

This picture is an especially good one of Nitro (at least in my opinion). Talon also has awesome colors.

I like Batman at SFNE, Nitro, Patriot(WoF) looks like a great color Scheme.

Canobie Corkscrew looks good with its Sun yellow Track and black suports.

I really like Talon, but the Cedar Fair parks have gone a little overboard with those colors over the past few years.

My favorite would have to be Batman the Dark Knight.

I like Talon and Hydra's color scheme, and the cedar fair "screaming green and purple" colors they like so much on Laser. I like Borg's colors as well. Also, we always talk about steel, I happen to like the natural woood color scheme lol, or like, fresh yellow pine like Twister it's first year

I definately prefer a nice natural wood finish on a coaster. Good point I hate it when wood coasters get painted like so many are. I just like the nice natural color.

Absolutely a natural wood finish is better. The Boss at St. Louis stands out in my mind along with Thunderhead and Gwazi.

I like natural colored woodies, but I also like a nice white one as well:





... so long as its not dirty and in dire need of a paintjob



And did anyone notice those are all Allen's?

White Cyclone looks very nice with the white finish, and with that dense structure its amazing how clean it still looks and fresh, it must be alot of work to give that thing a paint job.

Cedar Fair does well in selecting colors for its coasters, all of their B&Ms are a fine example.

For some reason, I really like the blue and white color scheme on Blue Tornado; always thought those colors look good on an SLC.

It only works on that since it's so massive.

Once again, we don't need a list. Plus this thread was about a color scheme of a specific ride or coaster, not for a chain... which I can't help but notice that Six Flags was left out of. What a shock
