New CC about to order

Hi Guys (and Gals)

About to order a new cc on lesae to replace the outgoing a4 b8 s-line 2.0tdi

I am going for the CC GT 140 but agnonising over colour combo.

My wifes a4 b7 is black metallic, as is my current b8 a4 (soon to be gone) and so was my prev car (bmw e30 cabriolet)

So, i dont want another black car lol esp as 2 kids mean less time to wash and wax compared to pre-kiddy life and plus every mark shows up.

What are the next best colour combos, perhaps island grey but only with black leather?

I suppose i like black paint as you can have truffle or beige leather but not sure you could get away with those interior colours on other exterior colours?

any advice much apprecaited

thanks

That'll be Shadow Blue then that Sir wants.

Suits you Sir

Shadow CC

thanks lol, but wont a blue one show marks just as bad as a black one. Whats blue like when its dirty?:beerchug:

I find paler metallics, particularly 'earth' colours are quite good at hiding road muck. That's not why I go for them. I just happen to like them; hence my CC is Autumn Brown and its predecessor B6 Sport was Granite Green.

I test drove an Autumn Brown CC with black/beige leather & beige dash, etc. Not to my liking at all, too much a yellow tinge to the beige.

My B6 had Latte cloth which I really liked but not available on the CC so I went for black leather/alcantara. Not my ideal as it shows up all the white bits and fallen grey hairs :( but it goes well with the body colour.

Island grey, always looks clean and for once I`ve got cloth instead of leather and found it so much more comfortable (IMHO)

I ordered a Candy White CC GT 140 Manual today for less than £300 per month....... very happy camper indeed!!
