Can decide which color to choose from on my Overland: Brilliant Black or Dark Charcoal?

When I went to my 1st dealership they had a Black and a Charcoal Liberty side to side. Both was parked in the shade and both looked the same IMO. When the salesman brought both out in the sun light, you could tell the difference. In short I picked the Brilliant black.



The black looks so so good :D

I like the charcoal over the black, but am glad I have silver. My neighbor/friend (with a black Q7) thinks I'm washing my truck every day because it always looks clean to the casual observer. Black looks awesome when clean, but I have a black car and black truck in addition to the WK2 and while they look awesome, it only lasts 15min before the dust builds.

Thats whats amazing about dark charcoal is that its still a grayish/charcoal color so you get the cool silver color effect, but at the same time its dark enough to have the same, if not more wow factor that black does when clean. Its a win win for dark charcoal. Nbtstatic's pictures show exactly what im talking about :)

I'm a graphic designer. Based on the your two color choices AND the design of this vehicle, I would choose BLACK over Charcoal. The black metallic paint is unique and visually stunning. I myself am buying a Silver JGC.

Brilliant Black. My 3rd Black Jeep. I have owned both the non perl black and the perl black. The perl, especially in the sunlight gives off a more charcoal look, as opposed to flat black.....IMO.

The Dark Charcoal is okay but it's too dark and looks as dirty as black gets in a car. Mineral Gray is the better choice for me but it isn't my vehicle.

The black interior has the same dirty problem. I can see shiny streaks on the seat backs and rear seats from my little one's sticky hands. If it were a Dark Graystone then it would hide better. Those would be my combo colors.

We saw a Dark Charcoal with a New Saddle and my wife said hello no we wont go. I thought it was okay and different. I personally don't like any wood in any car and have passed on them before.

Oh yea, go for, Mineral Gray!
