Can't decide on color

Help. Was originally leaning to black with parchment (with the wood trim kit). I didn't love the metal at first sight.

But I'm worried about keeping the interior clean. I have two smaill kids and we all ski. One winter in the Northeast and the parchment may be shot. I'm thinking ebony or quartz interior with CG may be the way to go.

Plus, I'm not a "wash my car every week" type of guy, so black ext. may not be wise either.

Would appreciate any input and posts of CG with ebony or quartz.

Thanks.

At first, I thought I wanted parchment interior, but I decided that the wood trim was beginning to become so common that it's no longer a signature of a luxury car. Their even putting wood trim in KIA and Hyundai. The metal trim grew on me the more I looked at it. I ended up with Quartz and I like the contrast between the black dash, black console, black steering wheel, metal trim, and grey leather.

Dude...You like it cuz that's what your gettin..A CG/EB would be my 2nd. choice, with SSM/EB as my first. I finally drove a 6MT tonight and lets just say it was FUN. Still gettin the 5AT though, I just had to let off some steam while waiting.

Actually bro, I'm getting it because I like it

I could of had any color combo and that's what I chose. So tough to choose between ebony and quartz. That was the hardest part. CG was easy.

BTW, are we going to see you at the Chicago TSX meet? Toldeo is only four hours away and we do have some out of towners coming...

I'll only tell ya if you show up at the meet. Seriously though, my car is arriving tomorrow or Monday, so that should tell you something. I bet you receive yours on July 28 or sooner.

Dude...I was thinkin about that. That'd be a nice little drive for the new car. I guess it all depends when it gets here. Now that my salesdork knows there built in Japan, I'm keepin my fingers crossed on the ETA.

Right on! We might end up with one hell of a turnout here.
