Space Grey is definitely nice. I don't like it quite as much as the former Sparkling Graphite, but still very nice.

My only concerns with space grey are:

- will it be too common? (perhaps not AS common as silver, white & black)

- while being easy to maintain and not show dirt and scratches (as much as darker colors), the flip side of that is will it still show off the effort of a good detail? One of the things I don't like about silver and white typically is the difference between merely "clean" and well-detailed is subtle.


I've always liked RED in general but I wonder if crimson red might be TOO attention grabbing for this car. Do owners of RED cars get more speeding tickets? Higher instance of vandalism?
