So, I think I've talked myself into taking advantage of the deep discounts and 0.9% APR on a '17 Touring Sedan. I took a drive this weekend and I'm in love with that sweet V6. I've been shopping for months and have looked at everything from the new CX-5 and CR-V to a Ridgeline. At the end of the day, the vehicle I most want to drive on a daily basis is the Accord. My coupe has been great but I was some more space and after driving only 4-cylinders for the past 14 years, I'm hankering for the V6.
My problem is choosing a color. I didn't think I liked the straight ivory interior that comes on the ***, but after going back today and spending some time at the dealer, I think that's my preferred interior color. For some reason, I'm just not feeling the black. Maybe it's the brownish tone of the faux wood trim clashing with all the black, the fact that the headliner is light gray, or that it just feels too dark, I don't know. I do generally prefer warmer tones, which is why I bought my *** and Black/Ivory Coupe. That said, I really do much prefer the Lunar Silver over the ***, but it only comes with black interior. I like how it shows more reflection and depth, and changes a bit more in different lighting than ***. Obviously, I like the ***, too. that's what I've driving for the past 4 years. It just seems like maybe too much white on the sedan. White also shows dirt a bit more than silver and definitely mores on the back end of the vehicle. So, I like the ivory interior and the silver exterior. Should have known I'd end up here LOL. Now, I'm not saying that I wish there was a LSM/Ivory combo available; I don't think that would look good at all. I'm just trying to decide what color is more important, the interior or the paint.
I am well aware of how ivory will show dirt more than the black, but I keep my car in impeccable appearance, so it's not an issue for me on that front. I'm also aware that the ivory would be a bit cooler in the heat of summer, and hide dust better than black. I've had black leather before and it wasn't a major deal.
What arguments do you guys have for against LSM/Black or ***/Ivory?
