Haha, I have a dent in my passenger door from a shopping cart. I haven't gotten it repaired yet, hence the wound.

In order of preference:

1) Azure gray metallic
2) Deep ocean blue
3) Red
4) Black
5) Ice blue
6) Silver
7) White

Guess what I have....
Yep, S with MT is only white :(
On the upside, the white pearl metallic is a very nice white, and it is a tri-coat paint.

Alex - like your choices as I picked Azure Gray, but I really liked the dark and ice blue. Ice blue was underappreciated at Green Brook NJ - they had a bunch - but my wife nixed it.

AZURE GRAY... the only way to roll. 8-)

Though I wanted pearl white, but they didn't have that in the AWD SLS.

Had i been able to choose, i would have chosen
1 Azure
2 vivid red
3 deep sea blue
However, since i bought an AWD "S", i only had 2 choices
SO i picked the platinum silver
I really am not a silver car fan, but this color has grown on me. It is very "metallic", and works well. I would have been OK with the white, except i really don't care for the beige interior.

Isn't "ice blue" more like "robin egg blue"? I saw one at my dealer and thought it made the car look like an old person ride, but it does make it look a little classier... which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

You do realize that you can clean the nose guard, don't you? ;) I keep mine very clean and shined up with leather protectant, and it actually adds a subtle bit of flare IMO. 8-)

Ice blue color reminds me of the color on some expensive cars -- like an Acura SVU which the couple across our street owned. They were probably in their late 30's at the time. I definitely would not hesitate to purchase one.
