MDXAZ

About to purchase 2012 MDX with Tech Package and actually have the dealer holding two vehicles since I cant make up my mind on the Exterior color.
I am torned between Grigio vs Crystal Black Pearl.....
Black looks very classic....Grigio is unique....

I am firm on going with ebony interior....(less hassle with scuffs/marks).

Oh, I live in AZ so I heard from many that black is hot for AZ climate....but Grigio is still dark (although it's not ‚

Also heard that Black looks good when it's clean and it shows dirt very easily≥≥≥

please help....

Grigio, black is too hard to keep clean IMO.

I agree with the others regarding black cars...that's why I own a silver one!

Mr Marco

Everything looks better in black. When the paint starts to get chipped, then you wrap it:

If you can manage to wash the car everyday, yes.

Mr Marco

The problem is you wash it every other day, then you must polish it once a month. Fed-up, I'm seriously considering the wrap.

At first I thought the color options were black and Gringo

Grigio > black

ETA: BTW, I agree. Grigio is the way to go. The metallic will look sharp on the MDX.

Stay away from black. Especially with Acura paint quality.

I have a black on black 09 MDX (I also have a black/black 12 Accord sedan and used to have a black/black 07 Accord V6)....trust me, scuff marks abound and it does require a bit more upkeep. But, when it's clean it looks great!!

Grigio. The lighter the better, IMO, if you get mildly depressed about cars showing imperfections in paint. My dads past few cars were black...what a nightmare to keep looking nice.

Black is not a color, it is a career.

Black is best for Lingerie.

Just got mine brand new (10 days ago) gregio with ebony interior...Love it.
My vote is for Gregio!

TSXmeister

Grigio....

Nexson

people say black looks great when it is clean and that is ture, but black only looks good when it is clean when it is brand new. After 10k miles, you get discouraged about waxing very visible paint chips.

italian_spak

i have a 2012 black on black and its beautiful!!! just expect 300$/yr of a good buff and wax to look extra clean and opt for a automated no contact carwash to keep it swirl free

MDX_eec

I have a black/ebony and love it. I garage it at work and home so do need to wash often but not so bad. It is a beautiful color combo.

EL_PIC

+1. Thats Italian !!
Millano Leather in Ebony interior for wear and soft comfort.
AC seats for cool and non Sweaty croch.

Just got the Grigio with Ebony 2012 Base last weekend.

My MDX is Grigio. I'm biased.

TiggaMan909

When clean, Black, hands down, looks the best! But if you don't want to worry about the maintenance involved to keep it clean, go with Grigio.

Woody33

A little late to the conversation, but I'd go black on black- sharp! Any car is going to get dirty and not look as good when dirty. Black is worth the little extra up keep!

ntwillie1

I have a gringo advance and it's great. Although I will say tht it is still a dark color nd gets dirty pretty Quick so u sill have to put in the effort to keep it clean.

omgitselainee

I'm partial cause i have a Black 2007 MDX and yes it is difficult to keep clean but when it is hmmmmm OMG it looks soooo sexxxy IMHO

DarrinDavidson

Got some colorful ones for my wife but yes black is the most effective and attractive

DarrinDavidson

Anybody else preferring black over other colors?

Gsmooth33

Black is just sexy.

I loved my blk on blk sport 09 MDX but EVERYTHING shows up daily. Love the way is looks clean/perfect. Had a grey TSX for years and it covered up blemishes very well. Glad to have picked up a Grigio advance. Probably have less trips to dealer for complimentary car wash too.
