Black, white or silver? Which color is best for Model S?

[Dave Rauschkolb]

White all the way for me. I have never liked red cars. They attract too much attention to the POLICE. I won't even rent a red car.

I'm flying to Garden City, NY today to see a Pearl Model S in person. I, too, have narrowed the color choices down to black, white and silver. I've heard that the Pearl is quite stunning. I do find that a white Model S looks more sporty with a black roof. The pano roof has basically the same effect.

I've seen the color samples in the Natick MA store. Most of the colors are disappointing, given how much thought went into the design of the body. The gray, best described as a gun-metal gray, is too cool (blue) for my taste. I wish there were more subtle metallic choices available.

The pearl white with pano roof and silver or performance wheels would look amazing. That'd be my pick out of the three choices. They all look good though.

Just returned from Garden City, NY. Pearl it is! Hands down. The car in the store has a black roof, but would look quite good with a pano roof too. The Pearl paint is really beautiful. It's more metallic than the pearl Audi offered for a while.

I'll vote regular white with grey rims and cf spoiler. Pearl is nice and classy up close, but I like the stark white for sportiness. Just need to see one in the wild and not just get amped.

The white with grey rims looks spectacular. After seeing one at EVS26 I was very tempted to go that route. (In the end I stuck with Sig Red.)
