Default Opinion on exterior color choice

I am ordering a 17 Q7 prestige this week and am having an unusally hard time deciding on exterior color. I'm between Night Black & Ink Blue. I can't find a photo online of either. Any opinions from this crew?

My configuration is:
Prestige
21" wheels
Nougat brown interior (really want the cedar, but can't justify the $6K for luxury package)
Driver Assistance
Adaptive Chassis
Cold Weather
Towing
Rear seat prep
Black headliner
Rear side airbags

Thanks in advance.

For reference, I'm new here. Last Audi I owned was 2005 A6 4.2. Coming out of 2013 Mercedes ML350 Bluetec - Arctic White over Black.

Have you seen the Night Black against the Orca black? What is the difference? Also what cedar is in the luxury package?

Black is the safer color for resale. If you look at all of the Q7's coming in on lots now the vast majority are Glacial white, black, or Graphite Gray.

The Nougat brown seats look excellent and you are right not to spend the extra money on the luxury package just for a seat color. Standard seats are excellent.

What about the gray? I think it looks stunning with the brown. But I am an oddball - I want to be different than everyone else and I don't car about resale. I prefer to get something that I enjoy.

I went with Silver/brown for my order. I also wanted the cedar color but did NOT want the fancy leather (kid will just destroy it).

I like the Gray a lot. My wife wanted white, but I probably would have gone gray. i have Nougat Brown seats and love the color. I know some question brown seats with silver, but fine with gray I think. Get the black headliner though if you go with brown interior.
