I for one think that both color combos are fine. I would take into account your car wash habits, and if you plan to put some aftermarket wheels etc. and try to imagine which finished product you like best.

The Flint with some Brabus 6 spoke wheels look awesome. The black with black looks just as nice. Decisions decisions.

To me you have a very tough choice.. But i personally would go with the Black .. The birdseye look so much better (IMO) .. and i actually like the two tone seats..!!! Either way congrats on the new ride!!!

I had the charcoal/blue in my C32 and liked it a lot..... I have the charcoal/black birdseye in the E55... I like the darker wood over the lighter....

the charcoal/blue/birdseye is a great combo.... the blue is subtle, unlike the loud red inserts....

Take both cars for a test drive (at the local drag strip). See which one is faster and buy that one....
