BEST CSL COLOUR!

karbonkid · 09-11-2008, 01:25 PM

whats everyones choice of best CSL colour?

Grey or Black.

Im confused which colour to get, Ive had black cars before and is a bugger to make look clean. more elbow grease needed...lol
I have seen a CSL in black and must say did you rather sick! I liked, but haven't seen a Silver Grey yet.

STATE COLOUR PREFERENCE.

SG as they look clean when dirty

The black ones are nice but will be hard to keep clean

I had 2 gray CSLs and i now have a black 1 and it looks brill when clean
But as Jaw F430 said the SG as they look clean when dirty

But Black is my fav

I always wanted a black one as I think they look very mean...so ended up with a SG?......The SG will show the carbon bits better, but no matter which one you choice both look fantastic

A CSL is a CSL regardless of colour. I chose SG purely because it shows off the carbon fibre better. Ive had many black cars but hate the fact they look dirty so easily and show off imperfections more. I would concentrate more on the right milage and provenance over colour choice.

the grey one's are faster..

The both look great. Buy on condition and the spec you want.

I loved the black one I went to see but we ended up buying SG just because it the options I wanted (xenons, AC and warranty)and was in great condition.

Same as the others actually went and almost brought a SG one with AP fronts , ended up with Black as it was mint and the guy I brought it off was a good lad, so had to slowly put the bits on over the last 6 months ...
Def harder to keep clean... but when they are

And they only built the black ones to give the grey ones something to chase !

I went with SG because it was 'the' CSL colour IMO.

Nothing wrong with black though. Well, apart from the cleaning and the swirlmarks! I love that SG still looks great when dirty.

I went with SG as it shows off the carbon splitters & roof off better, they disapear on a black car.

My M3 was carbon black, one of the best colour out there, but only when its clean, which even in the summer, never stays clean. The SG is much easier to maintain.

When you think of a CSL, you think of SG.

And, the SG CSL are faster than the black ones. Its a FACT!!!
