Ha! Ha! Ha! Nobody thinks the poor fellow is shouting! He just hit the caps lock key accidentally. I always assume that people mean well on a forum, and I totally overlook things like all caps, etc.

To answer Louis: White is more of an attention-grabber, while black is more "stealth". It depends on your personality. I'm a bit of a princess (a big burly one), so I go for the bling and the attention. Maybe I'm just narcissistic? Dunno. But I'll be a damned cool Narcissist with a fast car!

Three times? No. He wants us to know we should PAY ATTENTION! to his posts.

I generally don't read people who lock caps.

Disagree with white being an attention grabber. Frankly, i find white to be boring, understated and shows lack of imagination . Think of a white sheet of paper, a blank canvass .black is nice but a ***** to keep looking clean.
Personally, i went for the most attention grabbing .....Solarbeam Yellow. My second choice was Selenite Gray Metallic...Beautifu and Classy.

Just to throw it out there, the Brilliant Blue with exterior Chrome, silver wheels and light colored quilted upholstery interior is an awesome choice.

Not a a fan of Silver or Red.

2017 AMG GT S
I have seen quite a few white GTC roadsters in the dealerships here since it came out, more than any other colours, and I think they look stunning in that colour, and obviously it is a very popular color with this model.

I myself is contemplating possibly getting a 2019 GTC roadster, and I won’t mind a white one at all, definitely one of my top 2 choices. However, I think there may be too many (relatively lol) of them, so I think Solarbeam would be my other top choice, it’s a $10k option though, but it would be more rare.

AMG GTC Roadster, E63s Ed.1, M8 Comp. Coupe
The GT C roadster looks particularly good in white IMO. I suppose its the color offset with the soft top. Auburn wouldn't be my choice; saddle I think would be a better fit. The lines on these cars look fantastic in matte, it brings out the shapes and design elements of the car; even the designo iridium silver magno is stunning in the flesh.
In regards to solar beam yellow, it looks great on the coupe and absolute crap on the roadster. Ugliest color choice possible. As to black, I think it is an underwhelming color for that particular car, not a good offset for the soft top.

My comments are subjective of course, just like everyone else's

That's mine, thanks for sharing. Here are a couple more shots showing magnetite black ext. and auburn brown int. Ultimately, there are no right or wrong answers, just your preferences.

Yup they are all subjective , I think solarbeam looks fantastic on the GTC roadster, as much as the white metallic, and both these paints work better on the roadster than the coupe.
Basically, all the lighter paints work better on the roadster than the coupe IMO.
I like some of the darker paints on the coupe, but almost none on the roadster, although all of them look nice.

My personal preference, on the color combinations you are comparing, would be voting for the black exterior. It really depends on what look you are going for. The white combo looks a little more luxurious and relaxed, whereas the black combo looks aggressive and more sporty.

At the end of the day, it really is just preference.

Although.... you may have a 25 horsepower increase because of the black? Just maybe?? haha <----

A nice whip indeed. My opinion on the black stands, better in my opinion than the white.

Magnetite sounds beautiful! I imagine that it really sparkles in the sun!
It would be nice if one could view every possible combination of GTC made in person before one purchases....but I suppose that the online configurator will have to work. The Canadian configurator is the best one I've seen so far - allows HD viewing in 3D and different light, etc. But nothing compares to the real thing. I can't wait to get mine.....but now going to have to renovate the garage. 3 bays....thinking of a lift in each so I really end up with 6 bays.......
