Hi all,

There appears to be plenty of colour options for the car, so far I have seen:

Nettuno Blue
Sebring Blue
Argento Blue
Rosso Red
Bologna Red (deep red)
Silver
Black
Green (couple of shades of)

Are there any colours I have missed?

But are there any colours that I should steer clear of, is there a popular colour and a not so popular colour, is there a colour that struggles a little more to sell come re-sale time?

Thanks in advance...

Jules.

according to a conversation i had with one of the sales guys at Meridien some years back, the colours darker colours do better generally i.e. blues and black as well as silver. They said they also do well with argento silver (the light blue) sells well with them as they are on the "sunny" south coast but not so well elsewhere. He also said there wasnt really a bad colour resale wise apart from the yellow.

Strangely you dont see many red cars, but i guess thats because the car was selling to a different market than ferrari, and you dont see that many of ferrari's gt cars in red either e.g. 456, 550 or 575

Interior colours, the tan and avorio (cream) seemed to be favourite tho the avorio is not too practical.

My favourites at the time i had my car were sebring blue and silver

Was told by a main dealer that the hardest colour to sell in the 3200 was the Burgundy - can't recall the proper name - Lancaster had one of these for ages they couldn't shift....

For me, blue/avorio is an excellent combo, as is 'Mazzer 3.2's red with tan.....

guys...the best colour combination has to be black-black....after all black is the new black

Failing that silver exterior/black interior is the winner...am I biased I wonder?

Sorry in advance to anyone who has one but the worst colour combo I`ve seen for the 3200 is the gold exterior with a two tone brown interior. Seen a few of these when I was looking and they were at least 10 - 15% cheaper than similar age / mileage cars in more regular colours! I ended up with Blu Nutt and grigio (light grey) interior - beautiful, IMO
