Did it make the Ego look crapski or what?!!My opinion of Ego now is that is just looks like a "dirty" black car - honestly it is just the colour of my car when it's covered in dust and needing a wash. So I'd go for the Mercury - classiest undercoat you'll ever see!

One thing to think of is you future plans for the car. If he decides to get aftermarket wheels then this may affect his colour choice.

I've got HgAg, love it (but I'm a conservative old bugger who doesn't wanna attract too much attention thankyouverymuch). Previous car was black, loved that too (but, as others have said, 'twas a pain in the behind to keep looking its best).If I had plenty of time to wash/pamper the car, I'd choose Ego (out of these two options). Based on my current lifestyle, HgAg would be my pick. Sure, plenty of 'em around, but there are plenty of ways to personalise your car without having to go for a colour that will date faster than Paris Hilton.

Ford washed it for me yesterday, so it looks a million bucks! Brian, you gotta love how it looks in the sun!!!
