Coolest / Most Impressive Credit Card

So I need to get another CC but I can't decide which type of card to get.

My primary criteria are how the card looks and what kind of status it reflects.

Obviously an AmEx gold or platinum cards are the best in that respect but I doubt I'd have the activity on the card to warrent the membership fees.

I'm stuck between a Citi card and one of those new AmEx blue cards.

What kind of cards do you guys see ppl whip out that make you go 'wow'? For that matter, what type of card do you use?

I don't use/have credit cards.

I don't care/notice what other people's cards look like when they whip them out. Um, who gives a shit about what someones credit card looks like?

Because you don't have to be flashy about it. People just notice - consciously or otherwise.

I've never noticed a fucking credit card, and if i did, unless it's made of fucking gold with my name on it...i'm not going to say/think WOW.

This thread kind of caught me off guard...

Is this serious?


...Mine is a mastercard that has a picture of the Earth and a 3 month old (and still smelly) resin stain on numbers "7" and "8".

I'd say it's an all encompassing, impressive piece of plastic.

dub do you like think you're in a commercial or something when you whip out your card to pay for the silk undies?
