Need Color Recommedations For 530... (archive)

We are down to the final stages...with some restrictions. My wife thinks black gets too hot, I think the beige interior is too yellow...so that leaves grey.

Our current 528 is black with grey interior. What other colors do you think work? We have considered Jet Black, Electric Red, Cosmos Black (my wife thinks it looks dirty), Steel Blue, and Orient Blue. Since the mouldings are body colored and the side/rear lights are clear (right?) a lot of colors may look good.

With white, two blacks, three reds, three blues, three silver/greys, and two greens it would be easy to pick a color. Help!!!

Thanks,

David

PS
Our options are:

Steptronic
DSP
Fold Down Seats
Sport Seats
Xenon's
Navigation
park distance (front and rear)
rear airbags
rear sunshade (still undecided on this)
Sport-Prem. PKG.
Conveience PKG. (pwr. driver seat + univ. remote)
Cold Weather PKG.
CD Changer (trunk, we need the already small glovebox)
Phone (waiting for the '01 announcement)

The new options for us are the nav system, phone (only analog available in '98), sunshade, and options that weren't available in '98: xenon lights, headlight washers, park distance sensors, and sport seats.
