Red face Designo Cashmere Grey or Black?

I am so confused. Please give me your opinion. I have finally narrowed down my car choice to the following.

both 2005 sl500, with low kms. 4000km and 11000 km respectively.

first car

Exterior Colour, Designo Cashmere Grey (what a mouthful)
Oyster interior with chesnut wood
All of the usual features plus
panoramic roof
active, ventilated, heated seats
amg pkg
bi xenons
keyless go
wood pkg
and an extended MB warranty up to 2012 or 160k

second

Black (obsidien)
Berry Red interior. no wood just the metallic stuff
panorama roof
bi xenons
amg pkg

im a young 30 something guy. Can.t deside on the colour choice more than anything. Price wise, they are both comparable.

any comments? advice? anything
have a pic of the designo but cant load it.

That Grey will be much more unique, however the black/red is awesome. Have any pics of the grey for us?

Go black... Grey is way to conservative for a young guy.

Either way you cant go wrong, both colors are hot.
