Appreciate the honesty; and your right but I like to get opinions on what people thought; figured some would state a color not in the box some would be this is stupid and all of the above lol. But I like to get opinions always...Still stuck between Black and Merlot.

Isn't the car black now? If so why not just re-finish the paint for a fraction of the cost?

I hate black because it gets dirty while you wash it, it's horrible. But Merlot probably isn't much better in that regard. So if you think you'd like black, I say re-finish and clearcoat the current paintjob, it'll cost probably 1/4 of the price.

Well I am only paying for paint and from what Ive seen it isn't that expensive at all compared to what your average paint job would cost (paint + labor). So not worried so much on costs; but that is one thing I am taking into consideration I love black owned three black cars but its a PITA; one hint of light and you see every imperfection. But there are some deep scratches in her right now due to crazy ex girlfriends from previous owner....Definitely taking that into consideration tunermax!
