    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I live in Utah and I ordered a Telluride in April. I am still waiting to hear that they have even started on mine. :oops: I was told at the time it would be 10 months, I was not in any rush, but now that it has been 7 months, I am now getting antsy. I have been checking with the dealership for updates.
That being said I did order the Cooper Black in the Night Fall, now I am second guessing myself. The little sample they showed me at the time and pictures I had seen from a car show, the Cooper Black had a "purple" hint to it. Now some pictures I am seeing it looks brown, I get that is were the "Cooper" factors in. I was debating between Sangria and Cooper Black. I went with Cooper Black because I had read that the Sangria looked brown, depending on how the sun was hitting it. I was also hoping the Sangria had a little shimmer in the color.
Thoughts from those that own a Cooper Black or Sangria?
 
:)I'm assuming Copper, not Cooper. Sounds like the wait is giving you too much time to think. You're color choice will mean less once you get the car, trust me.

I have seen 2 in person with the nightfall and they look beautiful. I feel like each color choice offers a second, subtle color when in the right light, or dark setting. We have the moss and it looks brown and green and then a good mix of the 2. Like the previous poster said, once you get the car, the color could be tie dye and your would drive it, it is an amazing vehicle.

Black copper is black 99% of the time and has hints of brown in the base paint with purple and gold flecks in direct sunlight.

You will be happy with it. If not, it will only be 1% of the time you don't like it.

Somewhere on this forum I have posted some pics where you can see the color pretty well. I think it was a thread asking for pics of black copper.

Very pretty! Like the other person said ... the wait is making me think to much.

You will be fine. I have Dark Moss but the copper black was also on my list. The dark moss sometimes looks black and sometimes brown. According to my wife, never green LOL. The changing of the color on the copper black and the dark moss was what drew me to both of them. You will love it.

In addition to what others have said, I guessing the Nightfall package will bring out the darker tone and make the car look darker (less brown).
I would love to see Sangria with NF.. I have yet to see one in person!
