I’m kind of biased - but I like the ‘Coal Black’ the best.
What do you think ?
If my short term memory gets any shorter, I won’t even have thought about what I’m going to forget.

Since my car is a '15, I think I will stick with the charcoal black myself. Must keep it right!

My TT is an '18, so I'd like to call it Black Beauty, but I can't. When it was new the hood and fenders as well as the wood cab were painted in a two-tone blue and green that was popular at the time. Now, 101 years later there's not much of the original paint left, black, blue or green. the blue and green can be seen in protected places, but not much of it, and I've re-panted the chassis axles, etc. in black to prevent rust.
