Question: Black Interstate or Silver Interstate?

You had me at Ray Bans.

aaaaand introducing myself as well.

I'm Ron, just about to take delivery of our new Zermatt Silver 2015 Interstate Gran Tour.

We chose silver because I'm a motorsport nerd.

Until the 1960's, auto racing teams, such as Formula One teams, used national colours instead of sponsor livery.
American teams used blue (Imperial Blue, not ironically)
British teams used British Racing Green
etc etc...

German teams used silver, and as the Interstate is at it's core, a Mercedes....
Silver it is.

Welcome to the Airforums.

There's silver and then there's everything else.

I do like black and have owned my share of black vehicles but just don't have the time to keep something as big as the Interstate clean and shiny.

[QUOTE=jkinglet;1586059]Black. Tough to keep clean. But when I had it real shiny in Truckee CA last year some folks at the campground asked me if I was a "rock star"./QUOTE]

Mine is silver, and still, at last year's Newport Folk Festival, every morning we'd arrive, and they'd wave us on to park in the VIP section. And every morning, we'd tell them, no, we're not VIP's, we just have a cool vehicle!
