Opinions about color

Hello!!

I am at the final step of purchasing a tjet 1.4 sport.

I need your opinions about the color..

I am between exotica red and crossover black.
The interior will be inox grey and the tinted rear windows are going to be installed as extra.

The wheels will also be changed with the multijet ones.

Any help (and fotos) would be appreciated...

Re: Opinions about color

It's black for me. Suits the striking considered shape very well. No need to shout anymore than it does.

White is the new black it seems. I find it very hard to understand this and it's funny how tastes differ but thats the way of the world I guess. Not sure why there's a fashion to make sporty cars look like white vans or a massive Tesco's own brand advert

Notice how the new whites have been toned a little differently, ie the 500 comes in two different kinds of white.

All older white cars are faded meaning most of the white cars we see on the road are old and look dirty and dated. Which makes new white cars witht the appropriate styling look great.

It's fashion though pezz, just think of some of the clothes you must of worn when you were younger, and how they have come back around.

White White White!! So much easier to keep clean than black, and white is the new 'in' colour too which is a bonus. I was ahead of the curve with that one lol!! I still get comments about how good it looks.
