kuan 36,

I know that the computer screen will be VERY different than the real color. When I bought my Laguna without seeing it, I thought it was very gray and not much green when I got it.

To answer your question, the anthracite color was actaully pretty dark. It did look like a dark silver/gray. Now remember, I said it had snow and dirt on it too. It looked OK, but nothing like I had thought. The anthracite I have seen on the new M3, now that is a color!

I wonder which dealer they were headed to? I may have to drive by Herb Connelly in Framingham on the way home.

NO NO!! They were at Acura of Auburn. They had been there for a few days the guy said. There was a lot of snow on them still. I think they showed up last weekend.

Ya, those pics do lie to our eyes, i know exactly what u are talking about. Thank you for comfirming that it is dark silver or grey. In Canada we only get Black, Silver, Red, Gold and Anthracite. So not much of choice, I don't what to have what everyone else has. So, appreciate ur reply, that helped.

The "black" or "Bowling Ball" wood only comes with the type-S cars with ebony interior (Just like the CL)

That's right. It was on an anthracite (not as nice as the laguna!) TL. It came off the truck that way. There was plastic all over it, and tons of snow too They had just gotten four, 2 regular and two type-S. Two were WDP, one anthracite, and one silver.

Oh, and the parts guy said I was crazy when I asked about the wood wheel. Bastard said they wont update his computer system till the end of the year!!! Morons.

Did the type S have it or just the decaf version?

TLwis: That anthracite you saw does it look darker than the old laguna green? Almost like dark silver is it? Or does it look anything like this: http://www.bmwusa.com/start.cfm?top=...series%2F5.cfm
Can u tell? Need to know badly.
Thanks.
Actually that link doesn't bring u to the anthracite 540i, so please click on 540i sedan and select build. Choose Anthracite metallic and u can see larger pics of front, side and rear. If u can verify that it will tons of help, cause I believe no one else has seen that color on the TLs yet, and I believe that 540i should be pretty close. I am planing ordering one in Anthracite, that is why. Ya, have u seen the new laguna color, I saw two at a dealer in Victoria, BC.
