Long story, but got a '16 slot, so am just going to go with a new configuration and avoid any bad mojo.

Not to dissuade you in any way - and, yes, it's true: you really can't go "wrong" with any color in the F-Type in my opinion (the car itself practically transcends any color) - but the words "faith" and "hoping" aren't words I would like to rely on when it comes to choosing the color of my car. That or trading commodities.

Wishing you the best of luck (something else I don't like to depend on; nice as it is to have it)

Thats a surprise... did you just take over an existing dealer order and modify it?

My faith and hope haven't come without a significant degree of sleep-depriving research.

I took over a dealer allocation that was amendable.

The bottom line is whichever color you choose, I can practically guarantee, you're gonna love the car immensely.

Absolutely crazy that they got rid of lunar gray....that was an amazing color! If I could have got my F-Type R in lunar gray, I would have.....but I had an amazing opportunity to get it in Polaris White which is really nice....

It's also nice to have a different color than my XFR....

I think silver shows off the hips on the jags better than white, and you end up with the car not looking as squat. White looks pretty good, but I'd take silver over it. Silver with the black pack looks awesome on the XKR, I think it is the best combination.

johney5, don't feel badly about not having an obvious choice. I have been fretting over IRR vs BRG for two months now and probably have another 3-4 months to drive myself crazy. Ordinarily, I have no problems making snap decisions.
Regarding your car, if I had a vote (and I don't), I'd vote for the rhodium.
