$21.5 with 6 days to go.

I like the black but after 6 black cars in my past I said never again. The CB is bad enough.

Agree with this. No more black cars. And I've only had three.

I don't like jet black at all, but really love the carbon black on our X5 when it's clean. When it's dirty, which is 75% of the time, it looks awful.

Wow!! Now this 996 I can deal with. Wood dresses up that interior a little and the exterior color is really beautiful.

And here I am wondering who the people are who like that wood stuff in cars.

Hey now!! I had to think back over like 14-16 cars but absolutely none of them have had a wood interior. I just think in this case, 996 interior in general, that it looks a little better with it. I still do hate the wood steering wheel though.

When I had my 986 I thought there couldn't be a worse interior at the price point.

But then this orangey-tan woodgrain thing showed up and was like "hold my beer..."
