I prefer the dark colours (Carbon Grey and Deep Black), but wanted to know the views of the team.

From the metallics in order of preference: Shadow Blue, Steel Grey, Carbon Grey.

From the flat colours in order of preference: Tornado Red, Candy White. Either is superb and does not cost extra.

Overall preference: Tornado Red. Outstanding but a real pain to paint match.

From the metallics, I find Shadow Blue very classy.

However, if your choice is between Carbon Grey and Metallic Black, definitely choose Carbon Grey IMO.

Maybe a look through the sticky thread at the top of the forum may help you compare colours.
