Best colour for a 550 ?

stile - alpine · 09-02-2005, 05:36 AM

If I were shopping for a 550 now, I´d go for a black one, I think

But that is not an option

So maybe rosso fiorano, and I´m voting for red!

Boxer · 09-02-2005, 08:35 AM

I second the motion for black ! THe 550 looks great in black/nero.

Andrew · 09-02-2005, 03:18 PM

I added nero as an option to the poll.

gma365 · 09-02-2005, 07:45 PM

nero for me too!

jungathart · 09-03-2005, 07:22 AM

I voted dark [metallic 8) ] grey.

Damn, I am so predictable!

I had already voted on red

can I change my vote??

Any color but yellow is a great color on a 550. The best color I think is the light blue, seeing as how it is not on there I have to go with grey (titanium grey naturally)

I´ve never seen a 550 or 575, only in pictures...

Mikeltm · 09-05-2005, 07:01 AM

IMHO, the yellow seems to flatten out the lines in the 550 especially in person, plus it screams look at me, and the 550 is just too classy for that. Now the 430 in yellow is great. Just my opion mind you.

I don´t think yellow is the best colour for the 550, and I wouldn´t buy one in yellow

but I would love to see one "in person"!

I like yellow cars, but I don´t know if I would own one (maybe a 355...)

Mikeltm · 09-05-2005, 06:11 PM

If you have never seen a 550 you owe it to yourself to actually see one, it is a truely beautiful work of art, very sleek, subtle and sensual. It has all the lines of a well built female, a true head turner, and photo's do not even come close to doing it justice.

I agree. The 550 looks much better "up close and personal" than it does in pictures. I do think it is a design that will grow in popularity over the years.

Kimi · 09-07-2005, 06:19 AM

Red for me ! And second in black !

Mikeltm · 09-08-2005, 04:15 AM

I am still looking for an Azzurro California 550 with black interior as my first choice, but Titanium and black is my backup selection, although the more Nero (black) ones I see the more it grows on me, it certainly would not feel like a difficult compromise.

Mikel

stile - alpine · 09-08-2005, 07:46 AM

Mikel, if you have pictures of an Azzuro California 550, could you post for us, or send me by e-mail? I´d like to see one!

thanks!
