I completely agree. While I'm a blue-person, and that's why I'm really hoping for something like IBM, I really like CF, because it's dark enough for me, but not black, where all the curves would be lost because of the metal flake and pearl. I think this is going to be an absolutely BRILLIANT color in the sun, with a freshly-clay-bared-and-waxed finish. The blue has just enough pearl in it that I think it enhances the curves a bit, but it's just not quite enough (enough for me to really love though). I'm not interested in a flat onyx black, though, for the reasons I just stated, and that leads me to CF. I'm not a really metallic-person, however, I've just loved this color from the start.

At first, I didn't know that I liked how I couldn't really see the extractor with IBM, but I remembered when I first saw it how much it stood out, and that I wasn't sure it'd grow on me. Well, it did after looking at it for another two seconds, and I thought I might not like the matte finish on the extractor, with IBM, or another dark color, it kinda' disappears into the body color, which I really like for the stealthy look. Sometimes, I think I'd like to announce it's ZL1, and sometime I wouldn't care. I guess I'm just thinking too much about it, LOL.
