I did it! I ordered a P85D today! Now I'm in the two weeks phase where I can still change everything, but the only thing I'm not completely sure about is the color. During the previous weeks I went from white to black to white and now finally decided it's gonna be black. But there are two blacks! :scared: The model I was test driving was Solid Black. Unfortunately, they could not show me what Obsidian Black looks like, but they told me it's basically "metallic black". Is this true? Then why don't they just call it metallic?
Has anyone here seen an Obsidian Black yet? What would you guys suggest, solid or obsidian?
I saw both side by side. I thought solid black was darker.
The metallic part - well if you are talking about this tiny shiny crystal thingies in the paint,
a) I didn't think that looks very good on black and
b) There weren't that many shiny things in the paint anyway (as compared to some other cars).
Some people may like Obsidian more. Some may like black more. I'm going with Solid black myself!
Just imagine how cool it'd look at dusk with those eyebrow lights! DAMN!
GLAD TO BE OF HELP :biggrin: :cursing:
PS: I've bounced back and forth on colors too ..
My first choice was gray - I really like the new dark gray, but my car right now is exactly that same color - kinda boring. The older dolphin gray was awful.
My second choice was black, and its growing on me. I'm leaning towards gray interior, though 10% of me tells me I should go for black interior, what did you get?
My third choice was white - it looks nice with pano roof, but then you need black wheels, and tan interior. Tan Tesla interior looks just cheap (to me). So white was out.
The blue - meh! (Once i saw it in person)
Titanium - maybe in 40 years
Multicoat red - too cheap looking (even though its the priciest option)
I REALLY like the signature red though.
