I'm partial to turquoise metallic, also. I was a little hesitant when I went to look at the car before purchase, but it grew on me real quick. Of course, had it been a different color, the result would have been the same.

You guys are leaving out one of the best colors (IMHO) ADMIRAL BLUE

Have to say that Dark Purple Metallic looks nice.

They all look great, especially Dark Red Metallic and the Polo Green.

But I gotta go with Charcoal Metallic.
