Re: Black or Diamond Graphite??

These are my two choices also....i was even offered a fully equipped black coupe for $37,000 plus tax and licensing but i'm still holding out for the Diamond Graphite...it just looks soooo slick and the way the light hits it at night...oooh man it's over!

Keep in mind i'm in Los Angeles, where no one i know has paid less than sticker for a G35C...and i turned down a great deal on a fully equipped black coupe<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small"><EM>Edited by G35Hunter on 09/12/03 03:26 AM.</EM></FONT></P>

Re: Black or Diamond Graphite??

Caribbean Blue is the only color I strongly dislike on the coupe, but it is the rarest and thus by default is the most distinctive, which is worth something. The car itself is gorgeous and none of the colors will take away from that. Mine's Diamond Graphite, which some people find boring and ordinary. I love it, and in stark contrast to black, it hides dirt exceptionally well; a significant benefit for me as an NYC resident, keeping the car as I do in a dusty parking garage (all parking garages are dusty here). Whichever color it's painted, and whatever options you choose though, I promise you you WILL love this superb car...

I had a black Acura TL. No one is gonna make me have a black color again. It only looks good the first day that it is washed. I have a DG coupe and feel a lot better washing it every other week, and the DG color looks loke titanium, which imho looks more modern than white or black colors.

I have a comment, yes DG is nice clean in the direct sun with the light and color transition.

Question.

What about in the shade or a clouded over day? ...ever seen it then, the metallic is very muted if not pale, and a friend of mine had to nerve to call it corrola grey... am I the only one ? who notices it paleness in these conditions?

I agree with you 100% on the diamond graphite looking "pale" on a cloudy day.

A guy at work has DG and his car look fantastic on sunny days, but a bit dull when it's cloudy.

Re: Black or Diamond Graphite??

I had origanally ordered a DG but went to my dealer one day and saw a Black one sitting there. It was over at that point I cancelled my order and drove the Black one off the lot the next day. IMO The Black looks the best.
