So i live here in the United Arab Emirates, used to live in Toronto and have been a big fanatic of the G since fall of 2002! The car wasnot available here untill this year, so i am gonna get one. But i have a problem with the color which combo should i get:

IP with wheat interior
OR
MB with wheat interior
OR
Black on Black

Love them all but cant chose, your opinions please!!!

I don't know what MB is, but would suggest a light color such as the IP. Enjoy the car!

 

How much time are you willing to put into keeping it looking good? Will you be getting a clear bra? If the answers to these questions are "not a lot" or "no", then don't get black. If you answered "everyday omg I love my car I can't stop licking it" and "hell ya, I have it all lined up", then black on black is the way to roll.

(All kidding aside, black is a pain to upkeep, especially thin, very soft black like Nissan black. So unless you're getting a clearbra and don't mind polishing and waxing, stick to ligher colors. I really like IP on G's. Oh, and lakeshore slate is a fantastic color too)

 

I don't know what MB is either but IP looks great IMO. Being in the Middle East, I can't imagine having a black on black car. I bet turning on the heater would actually cool the car down.

 

MB= is what they call medium blue

And yeah i am not gonna be a clean fanatic on every little thing, but my only problem is that the IP they got here, only comes with wheat interior rather than the graphite which i prefer!!!

I dont know, hard decision!!

 

Hm ya, I like IP on graphite. That does make it tough. What about a color like Diamond Graphite or Lakeshore slate? They are both dark colors at heart, but enjoy the benefits of being much easier to maintain than black. If you do get black/black make sure to tint those windows or your butt will be on fire.

 

The thing is down here we have no variety on the different color matches we desire, unlike the US and Canada. Never seen the diamond graphite or slate here. We r stuck with whatever the one and only dealer desires (**** monopoly) on color matches which we the consumer have to deal with. I like the IP alot, so i guess i will go for the IP & wheat combo.


Thanks for your opinions guys

One.

Black looks nice but Brilliant Silver looks classy.

 

IP is TIGHT so, no question..... :-)

 

IP is nice. I would have gotten it except that I don not like the ivory interiors that they all has. Went with Brilliant Silver/Stone. Here are some examples:

partial to the lakeshore slate

 

I have Black on Black and live in he Arizona desert. When it's 115F, having a lighter interior doesn't really make much difference. One thing I can say is that the dry dust that settles on the car daily looks terrible. It's almost impossible to keep up with. Black on Black definitely looks the best when kept in tip top shape...but man it's a hell of a lot of work!

 

^^I disagree. Test this: Wear a black shirt outside in the sun for 10-15min.

Then retry with a white shirt. I can tell you it makes a difference.

 

You can get IP/Stone. Looks great.

 

Diamond Graphite and Graphite lnterior. I just spent all day washing, waxing, conditioning, cleaning, and buffing my G. And DAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMM it looks good.
