in reality: grey exterior and black interior (hide dirts the best)

Interior must be black not other options
For exterior :
Black
Tenorite
Iridium
Wood trim : Piano Black and Dark Burl Walnut either are cool

Iridium on full almond beige interior.. which wasnt the case as the roof linen was black even when the leather was beige. Looks weird imo..
Other wise black on black!

Silver on the outside. Easy to keep clean and hides small scratches and marks. Even after a month after washing it I still get compliments on how "clean" my car is.
For the interior definitely a light colored leather. Can't stand black interiors as it makes the interior one giant big black hole with no definition or details visible. Plus you never know if it is clean or not (bad thing). With a light colored interior you can actually keep your car clean because any dirt or stains will show right away. I've had my car for 2+ years now and the interior is a cream/almond color and everything is pretty much spotless.
Also a light interior looks amazing at night with all the ambient light reflections. It basks the entire interior in a warm soft glow. Black IMHO does little with ambient lighting. I especially like getting into my car when a valet drives the car to me as the cabin looks so inviting with the warm lighting reflecting off the light colored leather.
For the wood I prefer a grain that shows contrast and looks like wood...

Palladium Silver with gray interior and burl wood-which is what I ordered. Depends on the light, but I think of the Palladium silver as a light gray. To me, black interiors psychologically seem smaller/less open.

that's what i thought most of the time, too . and for whatever weird reason, camry always in the picture . yes, camry, not town car . but bmw and mb really did some good jobs on their white cars.
