Post Triple Black?????

I have always referred to all my cars as being black. Is there a reason or a true color called triple black? Is this opposed to a double black or single black. How about a quintuple black?

Yup, "triple" color refers to cabs, Exterior/interior/top. Doesn't make much sense to use to describe a coupe.

He's correct. Triple is for cabs that are 3 levels of black, top, inside and exterior. I love it when I see a coupe listed as triple black <img border="0" alt="[blabla]" title="" src="graemlins/a_smil17.gif" /> !

Coupes would be "double black ".

All the answers are here - someone's got an answer to any question you could ever have about these dang cars.

I just had my triple black's wheels painted black, does it mean it's now a quadruple black ?

Actually, if your wheels are black AND your headliner is black, you would have yourself there a quintuple black beauty <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> .
