    Seriously, I'd peruse through the Cali picture thread and then play with the configurator, plus check out cars.com and see what color tickles your fancy. Or, do what I did, pretty the wife choose.

    Cali looks great in a lot of student hues. Good luck in the hunt.

    I ordered mine in white with cuoio leather, very popular at this time, and I think white looks great on a Cali T. Rosso California is another great color if you are going to keep your car for a long time because you will not get the extra 12k in paint back on trade in. Black is amazing but comes with all the black color cleaning issues. Red is always acceptable as well. What colors are you thinking

    Agreed White does look sharp with the Cuoio interior.

    I'd add blue to the list given above. There are some spectacular blues from light to fall in the subforum.

    I generally think metallics look nice and so does white and Avorio. I'm not a fan of RC, RS or GM on these.

    Blu America, followed by TDF, Blue Scozia (you see a theme here ?).
    AS a wild card to stand out from the pack, Grigio Scurro over Cuoio, makes the car look menacing. It's amazing what difference a colour can make to the character of a car's looks, form sunny boulevardier to mini F12.

    Really depends on the "look" you're going for... sporty? refined? classic? out there? best for resale?

    I went with Azzurro California (Blue) but I really like Light Green, Ivory, and Gold.
    The Chocolate Brown interior looks great too.

    My cioccolato interior gets as many compliments as the avorio exterior. If you get chocolate (iroko and terra bruciata) I think you need to get the diamond stitching in contrasting color. Again, that's personal bias...T

    That's a good combo there but if you are fastidious, know that you will be busy with your microfiber rags and detailer all the time..........

    I own two black cars and my silver car is by far the easiest to maintain.
