Default Silver with kalahari

I am going to be a C7 owner next year. I know the options I want but I am still undecided on the color combination. One combination I have seen only once is Silver Blade with kalahari. If you have that combination please post your pictures

It is a very rich color combo (IMO), looks great and is often seen on very expensive cars.

I always liked Kalahari since it was introduced last Jan. and I also think it wouldn't look too bad so if I went that route I'd top it off with yellow calipers. However I think most Blade Silver buyers would prefer red or black interior for the most part but I'd like to see pics or eventually in person see this color combo. Go with exactly what you personally like, don't worry too much if you don't see see it often...

I think its a great combo. Better to be different then be a sheep and look like the rest.

I agree, infact one of the reasons I like this color combination is that it isn't common. It is very classy though and as someone else stated, you do see this combo on other high end cars.

Thanks, but this is the set of pictures I was referring to, when I said I have only seen pictures of this combo once. IMO these pictures do show how beautifully rich the combo is!
