Default Buying Advice Colors - 2011 Pilot Touring

Hi All,

New here. I am shopping for a 2011 Honda Pilot Touring in Houston.

I have a few different questions and will post them separately - so as not to

confuse.

My favorite Honda Pilot Color is the Taffeta White. The problem is it is not available in the 2011 Touring.

I have not seen a Touring in the White Diamond Pearl - in the Honda color chart it looks like off white. I do not want anything that appears off white or cream.

Can anyone comment on the difference between the Taffeta White (which appears to be bright white) and the White Diamond Pearl?

Also - The only two leather color choices are Grey and Black - any advice on those would be great to.

Thanks for the help.

Default Welcome.

You really need to go to the dealership and look at those colors. I have never really cared for white vehicles. My vote is for black leather interior though.

Default WDP is NOT cream...

I recently bought the WDP Touring with Black interior. The White Diamond Pearl is essentially a metallic Taffeta White IMO.

if you like white another option would be silver - in sunlight it looks "nearly white" and of course it's metallic, may be an option for you.

The black leather interior is more manly... esp. in the light exterior colors, if that means anything for you

WDP and Taffeta White are not much different from one another. B/c I have already had a white car, I choose black for the my '11 Pilot with grey interior. At first, I wanted to get black on black, but the dealer didn't have it. I start to like the color combination now, though grey interior is gonna be hard to keep clean overtime. I'd say go white on black, it will look stunning =) Keep in mind that overtime the leather will get cracked and black leather will make those cracks visibly.
