Wondering if anyone could share their opinion on these 2 colors. I haven't been able to see the Daytona gray pearl in person yet and wondering just how dark it is? How well it hides swirls vs the quartz.

Assuming quartz would do a little better job, but do like some of the picture of Daytona. Very OCD about swirls and trying not to make myself crazy if I can avoid it.

Daytona Gray is a darker color and it might show swirls more than quartz. It looks great in the sun and it's high on my list of favorites.

I have the Daytona Gray and I ABSOLUTELY love it. I get comments all the time about how rich the color looks. I too am a nut about swirls and they have never been an issue for me.

See attached picture.

I'm a big fan on the dark (like Daytona), however I love the Quartz I got. It strike the perfect balance I think. People are always raving about the color to me. I would do it again.

I am partial to Quartz. :-) The contrast with the wheels works better for me.

I had a 2012 Daytona Gray and loved it and recieved compliments all the time. Swirls were never an issue. However, my new ove is Quartz!

Cheers!

I liked the Daytona Grey, but purchased the Quartz mostly because I loved the brown interior option and that wasn't available with Daytona. No swirls AT ALL on the Quartz after a year. It's a great color.

Get the Daytona!

I have a Quartz A6 and only long to have a Daytona Pearl Effect.

That said, if you hate swirls, Opti-Coat 2.0 your car. I did my father's BLACK A8L over a year ago and there aren't any swirls.

The guy only owns 1 microfiber towel that I gave him and I'm sure he's dropped it and stopped using it.

This stuff will keep your paint amazing.
