ffs change of heart over colour
Re: ffs change of heart over colour
To be honest lighter colour are definitely better for this car (Sorry darker owners!) Was considering white as one of my options.

Re: ffs change of heart over colour
I wanted to see the White before placing my order. I ended up ordering Black, which got delayed till next year, so I've just bought Candy White demo and am chuffed about it.
I always liked the contrasting black trim with most of the other colours (Rising Blue, Salsa Red etc) With the Black you didn't get that contrast but it looked mysterious and mean none the less.
Only downside to White is that dirt is obviously more noticeable, just have to keep it clean I suppose.

Thanks all for voting...
White it is... the black trim / pano roof / lights look the mutts imo against the body, it'll be cheaper for me too... although the money I'll save on the paint will prolly be spent on car washes lol
Love the black but think it's TOO black.. needs a bit of contrast to it...
I only confirmed my order to the dealer late on Friday afternoon so fingers x'd will be OK...
