well this might be a complete noob question (this is my first MT car too..) but are there any particular waxes or anything that might help bring out the black more, even if just slightly?

hah no matter how much you wax your car, your not going to take the cherry part out...

My brother had the maroon colored Dodge Stealth and if anything, washing it brings out the red/purplish color more. Probably because youre washing off the dust and crap that settles on the car when its dirty that made it look a littler darker.

I don't like the color. the moment I saw the black cherry roadster at a car show I went "bleeeh"

looks more of a color for a woman to be honest.

^^^Boooooo..... :tiphat:

now hes definitley going to want to keep it.

haha, i wanted to hear the brutal honesty. i'm sure im going to keep it for at least this summer. but who knows, maybe it will grow on me the more i drive it. i've only had it for 4 days.

check this thread out...it has pictures of an amuse body kit (cherry Z)

it looks amazing. might change your mind a little.

also, come to meets and stuff, you mihgt like it more next some other colors.

Sabre, click the link in my signature and look through the pix I took in the first year. Looks like we have the same car, more or less. You can see a variety of pix of the car in different weather conditions, and day and night. I don't know if it helps, but it's worth a look.

I have the cherry black color. At this point I have seen all the colors in person and I like the cherry black one the most. I have received a few complements about the color already.

Def my least favorite color. Seems like it would cater to an older demographic rather than younger.

I haven't necessarily noticed that trend myself, but I respect your opinion.

To the OP, you wanted an honest response, so here it is. I am male, married, and am in the 30's. I am in the same boat as the posters above, particularly Vegitto. On purchase day, I was literally on the fence between a BC roadster and my PW coupe. The deals going on at that time were too good to pass up for the roadster. I love black, and now white (obviously), but I thought BC would be something "cool" and "new".

However, after a few days of visiting the dealership alone to look at the color in person, and after looking at it over and over and over again and conversing with some of the customers (and my wife) during purchase day, we all agreed that the BC color was geared more towards:

a) older people (i.e. more so men in their pre-retirement or retirement age of 50-55 or so)

b) females

Now, true, these are "stereotypes" of course, just based on opinion, but I didn't feel comfortable owning and driving a car everyday if people would view me as being in one of the above categories. I think it's a gorgeous color personally, but I didn't want people to judge me for that. Because as much as we don't want to admit it, we LOVE it when people oogle and give us compliments on our ride.

So I chose PW instead, and am EXTREMELY happy with my decision. Had there been a black, red, blue, or white roadster that day, I probably may have been driving a roadster today :)

Goodluck with your decision OP... my recommendation, keep it... it is what it is. Not worth the financial risk at this time, or more so your marriage (I would assume your wife would flip out if you brought this up to her... even the thought of it).

I actually like the color, but didn't want it because it was to similar to my 2006 interlagos fire 350.

Give it a good detail and put some Souveran wax on it, step back and I'm sure you'll love it!

ugh, you worry too much about what people think. I get compliments on my car all the time, from people young and old.

Also, I have only seen one female Black Cherry owner. The rest of us are dudes.
