So I am tossing up between the Magno Allanite (Matte Silver) and the Alubeam (Liquid Metal).

The Matte is $10,000 extra and many people say it is very difficult to maintain.

And the Alubeam is $30,000 extra and if damaged some say that the whole car needs to be resprayed.

What would you choose and why??

Alubeam, no question here. I like some cars that are finished in matte, but since its a grey, it takes on a bit of a primered look, which i think doesn't match the style of the SLS imo. If the car were a more aggressive model or make, i think it would match better, but since the lines and look are fairly subdued- compared to say, a black edition which has more extraneous junk attached to the body- i think it's not the best car for it.

 

I like it kind of like the palladium silver, but I dont know if its work 10k or 30k whatever it is. I think the iridium silver, alubeam, and red all look great.

 

My vote is for Alubeam (Liquid Metal)

 

Condor,
it's crazy to start a thread like this.

u gotta trust ur heart on this. most people posting have not even seen the colors in person.

 

I agree - My Heart Says Alubeam.

Having stated this, I haven't seen either colour at all, so, I guess that I am in the same boat as the others.

I atcually ordered my RS in Black with Gold and since there wasn't any around or delivered. So I ended up photoshopping an existing blue car to work out what it would look like.

 

I've seen both, Alubeam no question. The matte will look like yesterday as the fad for matte wears off, and it will.

Thanks for that

 

Alubeam for sure...

 

Alubeam here as well. That Matte Silver is NOT what I had in my mind.

 

matte!

 

Looks like the Alubeam is the winning the race...
