Best color and why?
#11
We looked at a Jaguar F-Pace and they had some beautiful color's. I spec'd a dark blue with black 22" rims, black out package that looked menacing. Don't know why Jaguar can throw a dozen different colors and Audi hands us three shades of the same grocery getting colors. Not even a Red...really?

Agree! I would go with Tofana white or the Argus brown then Ink blue. Blue and black won't age well. Carat Beige is a little to 90's for my taste. Seems like every luxury car was painted that color during that era. I'm over shades of silver or charcoal.

I like black on chrome or white on black. But I would prefer a black car. While some people love black on black... the lack of contrast isn't really nice looking for me.
Black on chrome looks richer in my opinion, like the classic Benz.

I chose Orca Black.
I wrestled with my color decision. We get pretty hot here in Central AR. But utilizing all the window shades, I didn't find the temp between the grey SUV I had traded in, to be that huge of a deal. I think there is nothing prettier than a clean metallic black & chrome. But, then I lived in desert near Yuma, AZ and had to drive a black truck into town every day during the summer and survived.

I think the black and chrome is clean indeed, I want the more menacing combined with sporty, aggressive and sexy black on black look without going overboard. My goal is to see how far i can take the Q7 in that realm.

We chose Ink Blue because far away it looks like a sleek black Q7, but when you get close, its a pleasant surprise to see the deep hue of blue. Our second chose was Argus Brown.

Still waiting to see Tofana white in person, but that is our first choice at the moment. From the pictures I have seen online, it seems to have the effect of a flat color rather than glossy. We are going to get the optional 21" wheels and really like the pop of bright color they give to compliment the cars color. the standard 20's on the prestige are just a bit boring IMO.
We also considered the Gray but then it will just look dirty all the time, as my gray truck does and it is also a bit pedestrian. We want something that is unique.
I am curious about the Orca black. Does this have hints of blue in it? Anyone have any details on this color as to what it is like compared to a "regular" black color?
Our dealer has limited inventory of Q7's so we have not been able to see any of the above in person.
