I think before the day is Over Im going to tell the Jaguar dealer Im going to pass on the car, and he has been dying for me to buy it from him since he knows My dad for so over 30 years, but heah Its my money so He will be pissed I guess.


An owner in my town has a black 545i Sport with black Interior

I absolutely love this car in black the more I look at it, I just got back from lunch and talked to him a bit and look his car over for over 30 minutes I love the black.


The only issues I find is the routine care of a black car

I have not had black in 7 years now, I had two white cars and I think I need a change.


I can get a black one this coming week for sure


Or Wait Until December for a White with Tan.


I still have not personally viewed a 545i Sport in White

Phots online are ok but in person relaly makes a better judgment.

Some people say White is Girly, some say its sporty, but in a BMW what does it say


So I have an Oreo Dilemma

Sorry but I don't understand anyone buying a white car. I don't really understand why some people choose grey either.

Location is important, as the colours look different, depending on what country you live in

Black is the only way to go. I have never had a white car but the ones in my family show the dirt almost as much as the black.

silver gray hides dirt and looks very stylish.
Be sure to see/drive the 2005 A6. Pics do not do it justice and oh my god is it beautiful. The drive is indistinguishable from the E60 and I picked it over the E60. Mine gets here next week.

The lines of the E60 come out a lot better in lighter colours, imho.
There is a reason why the clay models are always presented in silver..
