Black stock PCX
Picked it up 9th September and it has exceeded my expectations
Re: Black stock PCX
I love the all black color scheme. If that option was available in he US, that is probably the color I would have chosen. But I got the red and love it :-)
Re: Black stock PCX
The red is a looker too but so is the white. The grey was the other option I had but not that keen on it. A gun metal grey would be my ideal choice

Re: Black stock PCX
I thought the grey was more of a gunmetal grey? It would have been my first choice, with black second.

Re: Black stock PCX
The grey one that I've seen was the boring, invisible kind of grey. I'm not particularly fond of the black (although I like it better than the grey), but all we get here is the black, grey and white. No love for the striking redmaddiedog wrote:I thought the grey was more of a gunmetal grey? It would have been my first choice, with black second.
Re: Black stock PCX
At the showroom they had both black and grey. However the grey is more silver than grey and pretty light colour. Gun metal grey is a deeper grey. The silver grey pcx is actually pretty close to my car colour. Not a colour I dislike I just am not keen on it on the pcx. Everyone is different and good to have choices even if limited.

Re: Black stock PCX
I would have chosen my colors the same as dave, grey, black, then white... but in the US, we only have white and red.... so white it was =]
Re: Black stock PCX
It stinks that the colors vary so much by region... Very strange that only a few colors are offered in each market but as a whole there are actually a lot of choices--you just have a hard time of accessing all of the colors.

Re: Black stock PCX
I've seen people selling new plastics on ebay... I figured if I ever wanted to change the color, i could source black plastics for 3-400 bucks.. Might be cheaper than painting, and easier.

Re: Black stock PCX
yep! and... if you can find someone... you could either do a straight trade, or try to sell them if you're going to keep the new look

The smart car owners club advertise panel swaps. They have clip on plastic panels so a colour change is reasonably easy. Why not a pcx panel swap?

Re: Black stock PCX
That'd be awesome. I'd probably pay for shipping to get a set of grey panels.
