What do you think?

- Ebony (FWD and SH-AWD)?
- Parchment (FWD only)?
- Taupe (FWD only)?
- Taupe/ebony (SH-AWD only)?
- Umber/ebony (SH-AWD only)?

 

That umber is straight sex.

 

That Taupe/Ebony is kinky sex.

 

Crystal Black with Umber is very niiiiiiiice. Go Umber!

 

I finally saw the umber in person, wow that's all I can say. Not a good wow, or a bad wow, just plain old wow. IT'S FRICKIN' PUMPKIN COLOR!!! LOL. Definitely an acquired taste, like caviar or something.

 

haven't seen a taupe color in picture or in real?
anyone has a picture?
thx.

 

I think umber looks great, but it is a very polarizing interior: either you love it or hate it. And my GF hates it. Ebony is the next runner up, I think it is more broadly acceptable.

 

can someone post a pic of Taupe/Ebony and the Umber/Ebony ?

 

This is a handy link to use for interior color comparison:

Here you go:

 

my 04 had Parchment - it showed a lot of dirt - kind of like white sneakers would

is the link above to umber a real rep of the color?

 

You mean this photo?

 

yes

 

Black on black is always the classiest!

 

... but Pete, during summer, the ebony interior makes it so hot inside because it just absorbs all of the heat from the sun! But then you are so right that Parchment would probably only look good if you don't drive the car.... LOL!

Doesn't taupe also show lots of dirt too, since it's so very light?

Does the Umber color look anything like that orangey brown color that the 3G TL used to offer in the first year or so? What was that called again? Why was it discontinued?

 

I think the best combo would be parchment + Ebony, ebony carpets, headliners and pillars with parchment seats, looks


but if we are talking stock colors, the ebony, it makes the TL look a whole lot better on the inside, plus the leather won't kill itself like in the leather in my MDX.....

 

parchment made my 04 interior feel larger on to me than the same car w/ ebony. - but - Yes it showed plenty of dirt.

I had ebony in my TSX and now my 4G. In the summer, I used a sunshield on the front window and used the fob to open all the windows to let the heat out before entering the car. It definitely helped and the car cooled down pretty fast with the AC cranked up.

 

x2 on the dirt comment.

 

wonder how good the quality is of this leather. Hope it doesnt fade, wrinkle, tear or saturate ink from jeans. Just a thought.
