If I don't go orion blue I wouldn't go capri, I would go black

There is a orion blue on the 208 picture forum thread 1. The car I saw in person it was brighter than that picture. It can be hard to figure out the color by some of the pictures.
You need to call the person you have the order with and have him or her to find a orion blue . If you are not sure about the color I would be on the phone. They should be able to find a car in that color. My salesperson was happy to find a car for me in black opal it was not the right model, but I got to see the color before I ordered.

CAPRI BLUE

Take the word from a Capri Blue / Stone owner... it looks real sharp.... and turn a million heads for sure

I do not get to use the car every day, so the interior still looks clean after 5 months..

For me - A pure luxury drive car and a justified color combo , except for the wipers

Definately go with the Capri Blue/Light interior. The 209 look much better with darker colors. Accent the dark color with a light interior and it looks awesome!
