Re: Can't decide a color!

For my 2 cents, black is the only color I would buy. I have owned black vehicles for 30 years and think they look better than most colors. Just my opinion - like elbows and A-holes - everybody has one.

Re: Can't decide a color!

Man, four pages and unless I missed it no one mentioned "Mocha" This is a great color which seems to change tone depending on the light. Doesn't show dirt and dust very bad and looks great.

I should know as I own one.

I believe he is looking to buy used so the 09 colors wouldn't be an option. I do agree with you on the Mocha though, has to be one of my favorite colors, if I could do it all over again it would be a tough debate over the new version if nimbus and mocha.

Re: Can't decide a color!

The Dark Cherry Pearl is really pretty this year, but the new Silver color for 2010 is very eye catching.

Make your own choice, you have to live with it, not us.

Well, in the case of elbows - most of us have two...

Some of those pictures remind me - I need to figure out how to get the wheels on my (impending) RL powdercoated without being truck-less for long. Guess I gotta suck it up and buy another set of wheels...

And just to stay on topic, I'm going with black over DCP.

Re: Can't decide a color!

It's tough to pick, although I tend to favor the darker colors which I suppose are a bit more maintenance. We have the 07 Aberdeen which differs a bit from the Amazon green. Nice in that it changes color in the varying degrees of light it gets.

I would buy the green if I could find one with gray/black interior!
