For me:
White - too bright
Black - too dark
Antheracite - too lighter dark (if that makes sense)
so i went for gun metal, on superleggera's with red decals

That is a nice colour. I really like the idea of a red stripe as well.

Twins, are the new wheels a satin black? seems less intense than gloss.

I quite like the satin black look. I think I may have to do that.
Come to think of it, I've got a few litres of satin black in the garage.

or is there something else?
