I saw this thread has been around a while thought I would share my reasons for wanting BC...I just bought a BC roadster and it was because it had the options I wanted and it has a black top...I am not hating the burgundy top but I just never liked coloured tops other than black on any car...there were several cars in my price range available some were less expensive but had the burgundy top...I didn't get burgundy seats although I think they look great in the BC ...I did not buy new so I couldn't necessarily choose every option...I am in my 50's so I guess that bolsters the age theory because I like the yellow, blue and red Z's but I thought it would make me look like I was having a mid life crisis...I have been having a mid life crisis for the last 20 years but I just don't want it to show so bad...black is nice but common and I have had black cars before and it got boring...I just sold a silver car so that was out and I think the graphite looks too BMW sorry graphite owners no offence...my boss drives a beemer that colour and we park beside each other just wouldn't seem right LOL...I like white but my father has a white T-Bird roadster...I guess my point is we all make our choices for our own reasons and if we all had the same taste they would ony have to make one colour...not too sure my wife would choose this colour but I told her you spend more time inside the car so it is more important to like the inside colour...I like the fact that the colour changes in different lighting I have had several cars that did that and always got nice comments and questioned on what colour the really was....when people would ask me what colour my car is I would have to go look if I wasn't standing beside it LOL... metallic paint with more than one colour will do that...but the main reason I wanted BC is because it is the closest colour to my old 240Z and I am nostalgic that way...enjoy your car whatever the colour... it's a great car!!!
