Getting a new C63AMG, which color?

Dear AMG-ers... i am planning on getting a C63AMG for my 2011 present, however, i am struggling on color choices. I love the black but i want to modify it and put on lots and lots of carbon fiber bits. I believe the cf would not stand out.

Does anyone has a white c63 with carbon bits picture to share? i am worry it will look overdone and rice if i get it in white and have lots of exterior carbon fiber bits...

Kindly give me some advices

Then iridium silver will be your best choice to show the carbon fiber without being ricy.

Black looks very nice especially when its clean. I have Iridium Silver with Vorstiener carbon parts and I think it looks good. I say If you are planning on going with CF parts go with silver or white.

Am looking for a very clean look. Do you think White would look cool and not rice? I would cancel the idrium silver since i have 2 merc with silver.

The white looks very nice in person. If you want something different I would really consider Steel Grey.

Ya. I think the red is awesome as well. I think I'll either go for red or black. I got a BMW previously and I made the wrong color choice. Such a painful feeling hahaha

Loll. I wouldn't get red, its too flashy. Black looks amazing when its clean but its a real pain maintaining it. So overall my final vote would come down to white.

IMO get whatever you like. Even with CF bits here and there you'd have to try pretty hard to get the AMG to be mistaken for a rice car.

CF really pops on white though.

Black, White, Steel Grey, Porsche Macadamia Brown

I am a fan of the Porsche Macadamia Brown and it's the best colour for me at the moment. Although it does not go with CF at all, with piano black accents it blows my mind.

+100

There is one with cream interior in our building and it looks absolutely stunning. If I were to order today it would definitely be sporting this color.

Then black it is. Still a great color on the C63, very aggressive. You will notice the difference when you change the grill to CF especially underneath the sun.

Question? If you own a Bentley Flying Spur, why are you considering a C63? I mean the C63 is a beast no question, love my ride, but sounds like you could own something alot more luxurious in a sports car, thats if your looking for a sports car.

Anyway, back to the point, in terms of colour, nothing more aggressive then obsidian black, seen alot of good ones on the forum and looking add some CF finish with a nice pair of forged rims when I can afford it.

Also the Mars Red looks absolutely gorgeous and is very original, not too many out there.

Anyway enjoy your new beast when you get her!

Splurge and get one of the Designo MAGNO paint colours. Would look amazing with CF parts.
