Striking or Not

I recently purchased a 2004 TL from a Dallas dealership. The vehicle is on order and should expect delivery in about 3 weeks. Color chosen, Anthracite w/Camel interior. Is this a striking color combination or not? Haven't been able to actually see the Camel interior or not. The borchure rally doesn't do justice to any of the color combinations. My second dilema is regarding the under body spoiler. Is the vehicle more striking with or without the under body spoiler?

Personally, I'm not fond of the camel/faux-wood/aluminum combination no matter what the exterior color is. (I ordered Anthracite/Quartz.) The other three interior choices are all pretty safe but I recommend that anyone thinking about camel see it in person before buying.

I like that combo...I recently did a deal on an 03 Thunderbird in Shadow grey(Graphite) with saddle interior, looked pretty damn sharp!

camel looks good

waymay,

i personally like the camel color. to me it is very rich looking
and comfortable to be in. i think your color choices of anthracite/camel is a very cool modern looking combo.

enjoy

I also think one should get whatever colors they like and not worry about "color combination." You're either inside looking at the interior or you're outside looking at the exterior. It's not a convertible so you really don't need to worry about how the two schemes match up.

I would agree that you need to see the camel before you buy it. It is richer looking than any of the other interiors, but it is a bit "orangey" - should have been more "saddley" IMO.

Last post was right on ....

I had an Anthracit/Camel ordered until I saw the Camel in person - if it was more saddle or baseball-glove, I would have stuck with it. Too orangey for me - changed the order to Anthracite/Ebony.
