It's not that bad but it definetly isn't the nicest CL color... look at the previous generation CL next to it, how slab sided it is, what a difference, even though I do like the old CL also.... but the new CL is probably the most beautiful car on the road...

Oh, yeah...

I was told it was "Wedgewood Blue", but the dealer said that it was a little more aqua in color than it was suppose to be

That is not Wedgewood... It is a lot darking with more gray in it. More like Dark Turquoise Metallic.

Yep, i've seen that color around a few times...I personally don't like it. You can't go wrong with black or silver, even though they are the most common colors.

umm

Alright Silver and black are great colors regardless of anything.
However, with other colors it depends on the surrounding environment. That aqua color would look very good in a country or area with a lot of greenery. White always looks better in the night lights than in the middle of the day. Of course the rims and interior color choices matter as well. so it depends where you live and when you drive the car.

My dad's CL is some ugly dark/light blue. I don't like it at all, but the car is so nice, it makes up for it.

yup

In the end no matter what color you choose the CL will always look good. I guess only rims could mess up its design.
