Color combinations.

Saw the following color combinations at the dealership today ....

1. Anthracite with Quartz
2. Silver with Ebony
3. Blue with Camel
4. Black with Parchment
5. White with Parchment

The only combinations that didn't do a whole lot for me were the White/Parchment (too washed out) and the Blue/Camel (just can't get used to that interior).

I have the Anthracite/Ebony on order which should be deliver in early November, but was invited to check-out the Anthracite/Quartz and could take the vehicle if interested.

For anyone that ordered Quartz, I can assure you that the color is quite sharp - I still liked the Ebony a lil' more but was impressed on how good the color looked and how Quartz brought out the Black/Aluminum trim on the doors and console.
I underestimated the appearance.

I test drove the vehicle (for the second time) and remain impressed - I heard the DVD audio demonstration disc and
was impressed with the quality of the sound system. I tried to
make more use of the SportShift and was quite content with the shifting and accelaration.

I am thinking about the blue/quartz but have a few questions:

Is the blue a dark blue or a "funky" neon blue?

Is the quartz fairly dark (similar to the anthracite exterior) or is it a lighter gray?

Thanks!

Those are my colors. I am set on Anthracite, but am debating between quartz or ebony. I loev the 2 tone of quartz up front, but tha back looks rather bland. Both great, but I am not sure which way to go.

Definitely a drak blue metallic - looks black from certain angles.

Quartz is not really a light grey - and not a dark grey. Somewhere
in the middle. In all honesty, I like the Ebony and am getting that on the Anthracite Metalic. However, the sales manager had an Anthracite with Quartz that he received on Friday and wanted to offer me - I went expecting to dislike the grey but was pleasantly surprised. A very classy color which brings out the aluiminum and black on the dash and doors - almost bought it.

The blue is very nice - and I think that, unless you want something different like a Camel interior, go with the Quartz.

I have. It looks the same as the sage brush pearl from the MDX (may be a slight bit lighter) but it still looks good. I'd consider it but my wife has it in the MDX.

I'm looking for a black/parchment. I had a deposit on the first one at my dealer but they decided to put a fin on it (AHHH). Now they don't seem to have one coming in at least through the end of the month.
