crxb,

You should really do a multi-quote here...it's the middle button on the lower right hand side of your posting. All you do is click the middle button of everyone you want to respond to. On your last click, it will show you everyone's quote in one response post. Then you don't have to do 6 individual postings.

PS-really like the blue TL color.

That shade works for me. How true is it to real life? I didn't see it at the dealership.

Beautiful color. I first thought of this color, as the dealer had that one on the display. But I chickened out on it and took the black.

Hmmm, thank you. I guess I like it to have more a pearl-ish tint to the blue....I'll make sure to find that a TL with that particular color and check it out.

I saw it again yesterday, although it's a new color, im ,y opinion it doesn't fit to the car. it's not sporty (may be the new TL is not sporty anymore). Plus interior was tan color. For me it's a color for old people. Again it's a personnal point of view, i don't want to criticise the choices of anyone. I will go with silver if you are afraid of dirt, i know it's to common color but it hides a lot the stainless steel parts

I almost went with the similar color on the new JAG XF. It looks equally nice on the TL but my wife and I both liked the white. The blue with Taupe really looks expensive.

--I test drove a silver 1st - it hides the grill and trunk chrome stuff best. The interior color makes a big diff to me - my ebony - makes it seem smaller inside and more business. a loaner I drove w/ I think had the gray color

- it does have a pearl appearance up close - you really need to see it in person - if I get to zainoing it - I'll get the white balance right and shot it w/ my dslr

(hey Steve at least I learned to multi quote below) I loved my black 3G - - killed me almost everyday on the way to work - the city would water the median grass - cover the street w/ a thin layer of water - and as low as the car sits - - filthy

but hard to beat when clean
