What about this blue with black rims?

I think matte white is a pain to keep it clean, but my personal favorite is matte silver and grey. At the end of the day, it should come from your personal preference. I tried asking people for color suggestion as well, yet I finally ended up picking the color by myself. So, I'd say trust your instinct!

N1ck posted a very nice color .. matte chocolaty brown, sounds ugly, but it looked nice.
matte white is always nice on black rims ..
make sure you do get a matter or satin finish, the wow factor lasts so much more than just a new color .. you'll me more excited to drive it .. i know thats how i feel, but it could be the engine, im not too sure about that one :P

IMO....flat and matte colors are getting played out . go for a color that is not seen on many other cars . try a Lamborghini or Porsche color

(a)'12 C63 P/P, LSD, 19" m/spoke,comfort pack. (b)Astra SRI.
Question

I am at a loss to know why anyone would consider "wrapping" their car.....to maintain it would be a nightmare.
I recently sold a Focus RS Turbo, and a limited edition of this car, the "RS500" was sold in Europe....this car was wrapped in 3M Matt Black. It sure looked "different" when released..lots of "oohhs & aahhs" etc, but then originally happy owners discovered what the maintenance was like....petrol stains, scuffs, stone chips, scratches etc etc, created big issues for those who wanted to maintain their car in showroom condition....end result.....many owners simply couldn't put up with the wrap.....and removed it.
So, how will you guys go maintaining it?
Cheers, Pickles.

Orange looks wicked!

OR matte red....


If your going to get a wrap get something other than black white or grey. The crazier the better (and the more famous your car will become )
