Sometimes the gray looks amazing, depending on the light and photographer.. The black seems less photogenic in general, but I've seen a couple pics on instagram that really pop.
With the black, I'm definitely going to have to get a ceramic coating to ward off swirls. Prolly would have needed to do the same thing with grey.
They're both gorgeous. I just can't go with the rotor grey interior because I am terrified of it looking filthy after 6 months - even if it looks a little better new.

I'm glad I'm not alone.. this would be a hell of a lot easier if there were any of these around here to go and see in person.

You've got a good production date! I just received an update a couple of days ago - production started, so it looks like mine is running 10 days-ish ahead ahead of schedule. It is coming to AZ via San Diego which takes ~ 30 days from Emden. Looking like mid of July as of now...

Was just notified mine is supposed to start production today, and should be available to me around the end of July/beginning of August. So a bit of a bump up in schedule from the original mid-September delivery! (ordered May 9th)
