Colour choice regret?

Post by dom888 » Tue Apr 15, 2008 4:29 pm

I went for a black avant with black optics, but wish I'd gone for a grey one, with chrome optics.

Anyone else wish they'd picked something else?

Why are you not happy, I picked black but wished I'd also gone for black optics instead of chrome, I do like the stealth look.

No, always thought Sprint Blue made the car look different from the crowd.

i reckon the black optics are the opposite of stealth because they're different from the norm.

Graham,
Could you show me some pictures of the interior of your car in silver leather, I've never seen one ?

Good choice in a convertible imo

Nope I've got a black avant with chrome and silver Recaros with silver headlining interior.

Love it and would buy the same spec again (if you could!).

Graham,
That's very, very smart, I don't know what it is but I think it suits a convertable more than a saloon.

I've never had a convertable mmmmmmmmmm you may be selling it when I'm selling my saloon, keep me posted.

Thanks for the kind comments Victor - much appreciated. If and when I do sell it, I'll post up here first. :wink:
