Honestly I think this is the only car that I feel looks good in any color it comes in (I love the Ultramarine color, and I can't stand blue on cars).

Asphalt was my first color choice; I love grey on cars, but there is a wide range of shades that grey can come in, and I rarely see it done right - usually most greys on cars look too muted or flat, but especially in a metallic paint, I think grey is stunning - although earthy tones in general tend to be my favorite colors on clothing, etc.

I think that Asphalt / DGM makes the car look very sleek, and although black is my favorite color - besides being a hard color to keep looking good on a car, I like that you can still distinguish the black accents, trimming, housing, etc on Asphalt.

Argento was my second choice, and I almost regretted not going with Argento after I had specified that I wanted my 2014 in Asphalt, and it was being built.

Although I tend to think that silver is a bit boring / common on cars, the Argento looks fantastic; it's definitely the best silver I've seen on a car.

It drove me crazy for a bit going back and forth between wanting Asphalt and Argento, and I came up with all kinds of justifications to myself as to why I'd prefer one over the other, then I remembered something a teacher I have a lot of respect for had once mentioned: "what's wrong with your first choice?"

After considering that - I thought that there maybe was something to that. The first time I saw all of the colors I liked Asphalt the best; there were no reason or justifications I came up with for it - I just liked it, and maybe that should be good enough.

The first time I got to see her when I went to pick her up from the dealership, I thought she was perfect - even being all dirty from the trip. Since that day it's occurred to me many times that I couldn't be happier with the color, and I'm glad that I stuck with Asphalt.

Also, Batmobile
