That just my opinion you cant really go wrong with either one though

I would get tired of cleaning it myself every weekend. You must REALLY love your car hahaha

Have your dealer find you a grey one at a nearby dealership with near 0 miles and swap his black one for it. Have them jerry/roll back the car to you.......

My wife says to paint it orange or yellow. It won't be fast, but it will look fast.

Cyber Grey is extinct now...or VERY SOON WILL BE. FYI. It will be impossible to buy a new one a year from now.

GearHeadPeter · 06-03-2011, 05:32 PM

Go with the Gray one. Having owned 6 black cars they look great when clean, but if this is going to be DD, which I think it is, then I would not get a Black one. Just my opinion, and do what you want as it is going to be your car.

ddunerider · 06-03-2011, 05:36 PM

Black...

tjudah87 · 06-03-2011, 05:41 PM

Cyber gray is gonna be easier to keep clean and looks great. I think it will look better with the midnight silver wheels than the black.

Hahaha it's still fast compared to most other cars on the road... Except for yours, that's a real beauty ya got there!

TripleB · 06-03-2011, 05:49 PM

if it has more than 100-200 miles on it, it's not new. it's used. doesn't matter if the dealer has been driving it around. i would NOT pay new pricing for one with that many miles. i like CGM better than black, but i wouldn't buy that one. why not order one? it shouldn't take too long for it to be made and sent out to you. that way you get what you want on it and it doesn't cost more to order one.

... right there with you !! I LOVE black and (for me, anyway) it's worth the effort to keep it clean !!

The dealer can't add the mileage to the warranty, at least not as new. The warranty clock (date) has started, and should be sold as such. If the dealer tells you otherwise, make them show you the in service date and mileage, I bet it's already set and started.

The black may show a bit more dust, but as for overall cleanliness, they are both dark cars and will be dirty a lot, it's the nature of a dark colored car.

either way, enjoy the purchase, and come check out the local forums (in my sig) love to have you!

Ironheadspearo · 06-03-2011, 06:18 PM

Black is more agressive looking. Flat black stripes and black out the bowtie and tail light chrome and debadge the rear....... that's what I did and it is beautiful.

angie7 · 06-03-2011, 06:43 PM

CGM. I

mine!! If you are really concerned about the mileage but want the gray, can you go to a different dealer? Like someone else said, CGM is going to be extinct so that makes our cars even more rare
