07 Type S Black on Black Question

Ok so I am going to look at a 07 TL Type S, black exterior, black interior with the bronze color also.

For those of you that have this color combo does it seem like to much black almost? I was looking at WDP with the tan interior and black was my second choice. Does anyone have any detailed pics of this interior on the Type S? I would appreciate any input. Thanks!

I don't drive a Type-S but I can't imagine the black interior would be "too black", since the seats are two toned. I have an 05 base and the seats are ALL black and I love it.

I guess I am just used to having lighter colored cars and I am scared I wont like the black on black after awhile.

Has anyone seen the blue book on the type s and how far its down or at least seems to be down to me. I am looking at an 07 Type S with 32k miles, its black on black and she was asking 30k for it. I offered her 27k and she accepted but I just checked the blue book on it ant its like not even 25k in good condition. I was blown away!

I have the NBP and the two tone interior- i love it!- so easy to clean the interior- toupe is much harder to keep fresh looking, compared to the black

^+1, Same for me, I definitively agree for you. The two tone makes a very nice color combo.

OState...I've got a 2007 Silver Type S with the 2 tone interior. It's very cool looking and I think it looks best with the Black or Silver exterior-it matches the exteriors the best. The color theme carries from exterior to interior. Even with a black exterior, it's definitely not too much black.

I must say I like the looks of that. I was just apprehensive because I have always had cars that were lighter colors. I like the looks of that though. I am going to look at the car on Friday. Also...

It is a 07 Type S, 32k miles. Asking 30k obo, I was going to throw out an offer of 27k, but after doing the blue book on it its under 25k. What should I throw out for a first off do you think???

is this a private sale or dealership....prices are different depending on who you buy from, but you should beable to get a price thats close either way....i see on kbb that the retail price is just about 30k....i would think either way, you should beable to get the car for around 25-26...i would start low...offer 25k, print out the kbb page and take it with you...i assume the car is in good condition and not excellent....

Yeah vinnie6 its thru a private party. I initially offered 27k without having seen it. I am going to look at it tonight, and I am going to show her the blue book print out now and lower my offer. I assume its in good condition, not many used cars can be considered excellent.
