Question Can't decide on color combo....

My local dealer just gave me a deal...'05 A/T Touring Coupe (brand-new) OTD for $28,700

My ONLY choices are PPW w/FROST interior or SilverStone w/Charcoal interior.

Which one would u choose?

Thanks a LOT!!

PPW all the way. Silver is way too common IMO (great color though). Frost interior is vastly superior to black IMO...looks a lot more upscale and feels a lot less claustrophobic. I would buy a touring just to get the frost alone. The black is too monotonous in this car which really has no contrasting trim. Just my $.02 though...you should get what you like.

Frost interior......spilling anything= sh*t!!!!

I have PPW and i love it, silver is too common.

If you want to stand out/ look luxurios go ppw , if you wanna blend nice go silver.

either way its a Z, and im sure u'll love it.

also if you like chrome then go white

Anyone have personal experiences of spillage/etc. on the frost? ....Is it truly that hard to keep clean?

Thanks everyone for your input!!

If your asking about difficulty in keeping clean, it tells me your preference is PPW with frost. With today's cleaners nothing is hard to keep clean. Get the PPW

Another thing is that the SS vehicle being offered has a spoiler & some other minor cosmetic accessories (free)....Are they that much more valuable to make this decision any easier?

(A spoiler like this...... )

the SS w/ charcoal leather looks badass on the Z (PPW is more like a luxury color and the Z is not a luxury car), but follow your gut, man. if you haven't already, go look at them both up close and in person, and that should make your decision a lot easier. it worked for me, and i ended up going with a color that 90% of the people i asked advised against it's good to get an idea of what others think, but in the end your opinion is the only one that really matters.

I would go with PPW/Frost. I love my light interior, my last 3 cars had black leather interiors. It's much cooler in the warm weather and looks very posh.

That figure, btw, included only $600 worth of taxes due to a trade-in of an '04 Accord Ex-v6 Cpe. Which I personally value @ about $17,4k...So just $11,3k otd including the Aerodynamics & Cargo Convenience Pkg.'s, Splash Guards, Aluminum Kick Plate, Trunk/Floor Mats.

hands down, PPW!!! When you see one rolling by you on the road, you'll see why you've picked the right choice...

No offense to anyone but to me the silver is the worst of all the colors. very bland and I sear here in colorado... 3 out of 5 i see are silver. The ppw is a amazing color. when the pearl comes out it looks sweet and the white really shows the awsome lines.
