Default NEED HELP! Which color?

Hi everyone!

I'm a prospective Audi buyer (my first one!)..And am deciding on colors for a 2011 A4..I'm going to get the sport package with Nav.

I'm deciding between Monza Silver and Teak Brown..The brown looked good in the dealership but not sure if I'll really like it over time.

What other colors look good with this car? I'm hoping to get something that not everyone has..

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Come to think of it yes it does have a tone change depending on how you look at in the sun.

My previous demo was brilliant black, I really liked it but now I have Phantom and it is a nicer looking color IMO. The way it changes color because of the pearl effect in the paint is amazing.
Also, bb requires a lot of waxing and care. If you are like me that doesn't really do any of that, then Phantom will be a better choice.
