I agree, tan is great looking. While my car is bitter chocolate/sandstone, I'm more partial to a darker and more red shade, Kestrel is great looking to me.

To each his own but a deep burgundy red called Black Cherry is both rare and looks very rich and doesn't show dirt as much as Tan or light interior.

I have Obsidian leather which I am perfectly happy with my Quantum exterior, but I really like Chestnut. Fortunately, Astons look good in any exterior color from monochrome to Madagascar, Kermit and Flugplatz.

edit...well maybe not every color; that pink Zagato Shooting Brake is a bit hard to stomach.

Damn! The tan interior with Mahogany trim looks FANTASTIC!
I swapped my piano black dash for Mahogany. Looks nicer, but it's surrounded by black leather, nowhere near as nice as tan...
I do think the Quantum grey (or the older Casino Royal grey) is the way to go outside.
Fancy colors are OK, but it's not really what I feel the Aston is all about.

Just sold my 14 V8V in Grey Bull. Most unique color I have ever seen. Looks light brown, to grey, to sometimes a shade of blue. My favorite color to date.

Aston Martin has touch-up paint but depending on the colour they are hard to match.... my car Meteorite Silver (Fast Track) AST1344D, I tried several including Aston Martin and have yet to find a very good match, some too light and some too dark.... even try mixing 2 together to get it right, close but no quite
