That's sort of my thinking. I think the red looks awesome in a flash sort of way and I'm not really a flash 'arry sort of chap. The tan looks more fresh and ,dare I say, sophisticated. Ducks behind the hedge row for cover in case anyone knows me!

You see I like fine wine, malt whiskey, 70s thinking mans rock music and Italy. I'm not into larger, alcopops, rave mix music and Ibiza. ( More ducking going on here, nothing wrong with any of those just not my taste)

I do like the red though!, oh and the tan and the red and the tan and. And. And :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
now I'm about to have more time I've suddenly got less toys to play with!

currently going through a total colour crisis (feel a bit girly :oops: )

the Tan (walnut) looks wrong with the Ali dash

the red looks too grating

so now thinking of total rethink and

Maybe let us know your general location and I am sure if there are peeps near they will let you view their combo up close. Very difficult to tell on the configurator, I had same concerns but went for it and love it.

If only you had chosen a sensible (not white :poke: ) exterior colour in the first place things would have been so much easier. Your re-think looks a lot better in my opinion (which is the opinion of someone who has only owned black cars for the past 18 years!).

I'm near chester.

Interestingly my first Z was the colours featured in the brochure, the current thinking of mineral grey with walnut are the colours featured in the current brochure ( only looked today!)

Well I'm about 270 miles away but if you are up for the drive I'll happily show you the White / walnut combo in flesh. Others must be closer tho

Got to be the fineline anthracite wood, looks superb, and adds a touch of class, although it doesn't do it justice on the configurator.
