Color choice opinions on Vanquish S

A friend at work is ordering a Vanquish S, and asking me about color choices. I drive a silver and black tt, I'm not very creative with color. They are looking to do an Ivory colored (or close-sandstone) interior, and they aren't liking the two tone inset seat choices. I think I can talk them in to some piping color for carpets, and maybe a nicer steering wheel. Their first thought was the Tungsten grey exterior, but I'm thinking the Onyx black goes better.

I know, it's all personal choice. I'm liking the Iron Ore leather myself.

What does Monaco Blue look like, I can not get a good look at it because on the configurator it looks like it is a little brighter than Midnight Blue but not much?

I used the configurator with them. I'm thinking some of you here have seen colors in person to recommend them or shoot them down though. The blue is awesome on the screen, but there doesn't seem to be an ivory color leather.

Beautiful black S there. Darker color really show the chrome trim around roof to rear window. But I will pick lighter int. color. Blk/Blk is kind of boring for AM.

Its similar to Ferrari's Tour De France Blue.

Trust me , Ive seen Monaco blue in person and it sure looks good.

IMO, and my cousins as well, if he was to purchase another S, he'd want it in British Racing Green. So much history in that color with the car, and it really highlights the lines

He has the Vanquish, the 355, a pair of 750's, a 6 series vert, and an X5.
