Stealth Pack

have ordered my RRS in Corris Grey, Santorini Black Pano Sliding contrast roof, and am thinking about changing into Carpathian Grey ... If it is grey!

Could anywaone please confirm if the Stealth Pack is still visible on the Carpathian Grey, or if it is more noticeable on the Corris Grey?

Thanks

The stealth pack will stand out more on a corris car as the corris is more like a dark silver than a grey .
If you forget about the names of the colours and just look at them there are bright and dark options in most colours , and a few blacks with a hint of black, blue or brown .
If you want a grey car go for the carpathian . Silver then go for corris or Indus . The other colours with grey in the name will have a hint of another colour in them .
Hope I'm making sense .
Have a search on here for a thread called " stealth pack on different colours: add your pics " it has all the colours pictured with the stealth pack , in general.
Or carpathian grey in orders . Good luck .

This is my Corris Grey without Stealth Pack, best description might be grey with a hint of brown, it looks silvery in the photo but that was because it was in the sun and only a couple of hours old, in normal daylight it doesn't have any silver in it! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Thanks Tim and Fletcher. As I chose the Stealth Pack, I do like to see the contrast with the black, therefore I will stay on Corris, as I don't like lighter colors ... Had a white BMW X6 M for a couple of years, and am not into darker colors!

What still puzzles me is that on a thread re Carpathian Grey, I found some posts of members of their new RRS in Carpathian: on the pics the color seems just a little bit darker than Corris, which I would have preferred. But when I went to the showroom, the sample palettes of Carpathian were almost black, very dark ... I presume that either the pics have been filtered or online the Carpathian looks much brighter, and lighter! I checcked the pics on both HD and led screens, with Apple or Microsoft software ... but those pics still show a much brighter color!

Confused

Carpathian was a replacement dark shade for Causeway Grey , it is darker than Corris. If you want something different to the herd then try Zanzibar with a Tan/Ebony interior, Stealth Pack and contrast roof................ my last car was an evoque in that very rare combination. It was a brave decision to go with it but it worked really well. I sold the car after 12 months and the dealer thought it might be a problem to shift it in London where they mostly sell dark colours. It was sold within 10 days and they tell me that recently, after 9 months with that owner it has just been traded in against an L405 Autobiography and they didn't even need to prep the Evoque for sale as it was bought the day it was handed over by somebody who fell in love with the combo!

Thanks Tim.

Yes, you are right: at the showroom I had both the Causeway and the Carpathian sample palettes put near a RR Corris Grey, and both looked very dark, and almost the same... Maybe the Carpathian had one tone lighter, but it probably was of the different light angle.

That's why I got puzzled about the pics from other members on the forum. Fkarim sent me some pics of his Carpathian RRS, and ONLY in the bright sunlight, you get that grey lighter. Without sun, the color is too dark for my Stealth Pack.

Carpathian looks great with the silver contrast, and light interiors: Fkarim's is an excellent choice. Thumbs Up But I am looking for a more sporty, "meaner" look, and like the Stealth Pack with the 22" wheels!

Zanzibar is a nice color, but I would like it for the first 3-6 months, and then get tired. Prefer to stick on a grey I like, and get that black contrast. If LR would have had a new grey, just a tone or two darker, I would have gone for that.

If I get tired of the Corris I could anyway wrap it in the future with a cool matt frosty grey ... Thumbs Up

Have you thought about Scotia Grey which is more mossy green with a hint of grey? My 1st RRS was in the old equivalent shade which was Giverny Green. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Many thanks , 10 months of stress but I feel it works too . Carpathian is a great match for the plastics and the gloss is great all matching rather than the satin on the stealth pack .

Thanks Fletcher, looks good, but far too dark for my taste ... Personally I think that the Carpathian matches better with the silver (wheels, etc), and that the Corris, or lighter colors, even white do look more sportier with the Stealth Pack. But, DE GUSTIBUS.

Haven't seen the Carpathian live yet, but am almost pretty sure I will go with Corris + Stealth Pack. At the end of the day I liked the pics of the Carpathian in bright sun light, i.e. grey, not the dark once ... far too close to the Santorini Black.

Thanks anyway.

Kind Regards and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!!! Thumbs Up
