I'm actually trying to decide between the Aegean Blue Pearl and the Satin Silver Metallic. Personally, I think I'm going to go with the Silver just because of all the scratches that become visible with blue. But if I had to choose between blue and white, I would definitely go with Aeagean Blue Pearl.

White is pretty easy to maintain. I waited for a whole month to get the white because it was my favorite TL-S color.

I've had nothing but blue cars. Never got sick. I thought ABP would be too bold, but I grown to appreciate its unique color. It even changes shade depending on the ambient lighting.

WDP all the way. WDP with the Parch interior is pimp!!!
I love the Aegean Blue but like the WDP just as much. the deciding factor: 3-4 yrs from now the WDP will still look like new since it hide scratches & swirls. The Blue might not look so nice especially if u have a couple big scratches on it.

I have the black with parchment but if I had to choose between the ADP and WDP I would go with the WDP with parchment.

I like the ADP but think I would tire of the color after a while. I had a blue car years ago and liked it but don't think I would buy another.

Next to silver, white is the easiest color to maintain.

ABP!!!!! The reason I went with this color is because it's only comes with the TLS model. I wanted to look different then all the other TL's out there. White is the most common color out there for any car, don't get me worng it look tight tho. WDP would be my second choice. It's just you don't see ABP out there too much.

Talking WHITE DIAMOND PEARL, BAYBEE!

The WHITE DIAMOND PEARL is beautiful in a subtle way; and the combo with the parchment is simply elegant. The ABP blue is a trendy color, and a few years from now, it will show swirl marks, dings, and other imperfections more readily than a light color like white or silver.
Nothing is really wrong with either color--the TL series makes them all look good! No matter what color, it is a WIN-WIN situation with an Acura!

I like my NBP/Parchment, but given the available choices would prefer the Aegean Blue--it's quite a striking color if you want to get attention, AZNTL! And I was sorry to hear about your baby being violated....I know I'd be heartbroken.

I mean hope you get your new one soon!

Aegean blue is nice...but WDP is just elegant and luxurious with either black or parchment interior, and it'll hold up well. Blue is eye catching, and very unique, but as the years wear on....perhaps it starts to look dated.

C'mon WDP is boring... My Grandma has a white car... ABP has personality... it's hot... as for it looking dated i don't think the paint will start to fade for at least 5 years unless you totally neglect it

hey...that's mean! Naah...WDP isn't boring...it has the cool pearl affect!! :p

I think what is means by dated is...the longer you look at is...it gets more boring. everyone has Blue. But personally....I love both colors. The Blue realllly stands out!!!!! But the white....just more *elegant* HEHE!

Well, Mawaru, at least your GRANDMOTHER has good taste in car colors... : ) and what I meant by dated is that in a few years, the trend may end for Aeagean Blue and it will be like teal was a few years before--hot for a while and then. . . YAWN...Pearl White will look sharp in years to come because it isn't quite as much of a trendsetter.

I was just kidding about the grandma thing. The WDP looks nice, but I think it's too old for me. The blue is much more youthful and flashy. WDP is elegant and classy. I think it's just what you're looking for. I personally decided to go with the ABP.

No offense taken. I couldn't agree more with your assessment of the colors--I would have probably loved ABP when I was about 30, but twenty years later, the WDP appeals to me more--
We tend to get a little more conservative as we age, but this much I know: I could live with one of these TL Type S Acura's in ANY color. It's a damned nice car!
