thanks for the quick response! when you look at sumatra in the sun, does it have any color hues to it? for instance, Carbon Black Metallic from BMW has a purple/blue in it, Jerez Black Metallic literally looks super dark blue in the sun, while Black Sapphire Metallic has a silver-like metallic flake in it which makes it look more metallic gray/charcoal without any hues. coming from the BMW world, i realized what i like more is the more neutral black (either a straight black or neutral metallic black). thanks for the input! 2012 Range Rover Autobiography Sport - SC - Sumatra/Tan/Ebony 2008 BMW ///M3 - Space Gray/Black |

I noticed the santorini black on my rrs has a lot of coloured metallic flakes in it if you get close up in good light

No, no colour hues, just silver flake. I know what you mean about carbon black, but the metallic just serves to lighten the black, hence making it look like a charcoal colour in the light. I think if you light the neutral blacks, it will be what you're looking for ![]() MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it ![]() GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass |
