I'll be buying within 7 days hopefully. This is the only unresolved issue. I've seen both in person. Still undecided.

Is the anthracite a mix b/w silver and black, kinda like BMW's steel gray color? B/c in the pic above ir looks like a seaweed green; the color looks as if it has a greensih hue to it. If not,IMHO, then get the color as long as it doesn't have a greenish hue 2 it.

It's a mix between silver and black pretty much... no greenish hue.
The thing is that I saw the CL-S in Anthracite in the dealer and I thought it looked pretty damn good. Then I looked up and I saw the Silver one, also looking pretty damn good.
Then on the way back I see a TL with the Anthracite exterior, and throught it look great, but made the car look 'old'. Dunno why.

I love the Anthracite color. First of all, I see ton of Satin Silvers on the street, so I think the Anthracite has fresh appeal...plus it makes the car look agressive as hell considered the blacked out area of the headlights matches the paint color almost exactly...

Satin Silver on the other hand has a classy, yet boring look to it in my opinion...I would be driving silver if the earlier models didn't have that damn bowling ball...

Just my 2 cents...

Why are you putting so much down? In theory, you should never put anything down assuming that you can invest your money at a greater rate than the loan you are taking out...

In other words, if you put 18k down, you are down 18k NOW. If you put 5k down, you have 13k to invest and make some interest. So what if your payments are a little higher...

I would have grabbed the anthracite in a millisecond if it had been available at the time (and I love silver cars).

Stealthy:
Maintainable color:
Great looks:

Get it:

I vote silver. I have silver now and saw the anthracite today at the dealer. Its a nice color, but too dark for my lazy ass to wash all the time.
