Black is best. Keeps better.

I wouldn't entirely agree with that. Scratches/nicks and dirt will show more on the stone, but the black gets hotter from the sun so it will crack and weather quicker. IMHO

Tell me what upsets you about the stone? Is it just personal preference or is there a more rooted issue? If you had to choose between a Blue Slate graphite (given its your 2nd choice color, also has 110mi on it) vs a Athens Blue stone (never driven) with same options, what would you pick?

wouldn't of bought this car if it was not for the AB. only reason i said black is b/c my driver Reacaro only came in Black. so it don't match perfectly. Also not sure if im going to do tint so the dark interior makes it seem darker inside without doing a tint. Stone is great but just does not match my seats lol

ab with no interior is still better to me than any other color G37.

Not if you upkeep it with leather conditioner like Lexol and have tinted windows. ANY leather can crack without proper maintenance.

Athens Blue with black interior is a hard combo to find. When I was looking for my 2006 AB 6MT G35, there were none in the state of California. They had one with Stone interior and one with black interior but was a 5AT. I decided to just wait. Finally, after waiting a few weeks, they notified me that they found one at another dealership but there was a deal pending on it. If the deal fell through, it was mine. DOH!! So I had to wait a couple of more days. Finally, they called me and said it was mine!! Woohoo!! It was definitely worth the wait to get the exact car that I wanted!! I'm sure Athens Blue G37's will also be pretty rare in comparison to the other colors available. I think it's pretty cool to have a color that is somewhat rare when it comes to a G. I have been asked a few times if it is a custom color.

I alsways get asked if its custom and of course i say YES!!!! I know the Valencia, CA dealer finally got one AB in stock the other day. I hope it never sells.

if you guys want some more AB pics let me know, i got about 20 million with stocks, rims, etc etc. Interior pics to.
