Well I have voted for red/burgandy, as I have one and love it.  But it can also be metalic purple, black or deep blue depending on the light! Cheesy Cheesy Wink

Well, I've got the whites underway, because mine is white.  Grin Otherwise I would go for black, Omega looks classy in black. Thumbs Up!

Nothing better than standing back and admiring the finish that only a freshly washed and polished black car gives, but one shower of rain or a layer of road dust and it's back in square one.
My previous Mig was a metalic Plum (anyone else think plum is a comedy word or is it just me ?) and that was also a deep wetlook finish when clean and the sun was out. On a dull day or if it was dusty it just looked a drab brownish colour.
Current mig is Champagne/Gold "a la Entwood".  Stays looking reasonably clean for ages, but not quite the same reward from the "just done polishing" as I got from the darker metalic finish.

To finally answer the question, Champagne/Gold (or Silver...or anything that stays looking clean for longer)
