It might be a little boy-racer-ish for a luxo sedan, but I already have an English sedan with warm wood & tan leather in the garage and I wanted a contrast between the two.

Congratulations, now the wait begins! Black is always a good choice. I went with the YB after having driven dark cars for the last 15 years. I'm over it for awhile. Plus, I kind of let the kids pick but I was a fan of it. My car is being painted now, I'll have a VIN next week.

I saw a cognac exterior painted Pan in Monaco while back and it looked awesome. Most of the Pan's are either white or black; I would personally def choose a unique color.

Oops, I thought I was replying to you and you'd chosen black. I don't know whether I saw Cognac or Topaz Brown in person but it was one or the other. It had the Nat. Olive wood which is great because it's a matte finish. I wasn't a fan of the exterior but it may have been the lighter one. Cognac is darker.

If it's between those 2, I'd pick CG but it's your hundred grand

The Carbon Gray has too much brown for my tastes. I just ordered Basalt Black with black interior and carbon fiber. I want to emphasize the performance aspect of the car over the luxury aspect.
