Entegra colors
Hi Everyone. 2 yrs new to RVng. Joined IRV2 yesterday and need your help!
Just traded in a 2007 Tiffin Phaeton and ordered a new 2015 Entegra Anthem. New MH is in the build schedule and we have only 2 weeks to decide on the colour. Wife and I have narrowed selection down to two new Entegra Anthem exterior colours for 2015; Goldmist and Lapis. Mocha interior (can't change at this stage of build). We are sort of favouring Lapis because it is so different but we are concerned about. market acceptance and resale 5 yrs down the road. We would appreciate feedback and help with making this choice. Come on you experienced ladies please help us with this one. Thanks and look forward to your feedback.

Welcome to irv2. I've moved your thread here to get Entegra owners input.

Welcome to the forum. I saw the Lapis when I was at the factroy a few months ago....it looked nice. Do a search on this forum for Lapis, one that has been delivered the owner posted pictures of it.
Found it, the first photo is the one I saw and the last post photo is of the darker Lapis. Both looked nice.
We were like you and thought of color obsolescence at the time of resale and stayed with an earth-tone color, but I did like the light blue that I saw.

Just saw someone's pictures of their coach in Lapis and liked it immensely! Everything lately seems to be in brown/gold tones. I thought the blue/grey/white color scheme of the Lapis to be a refreshing change.

Welcome to iRV2 and the Entegra forum. And, congratulations on your purchase.
I saw the Goldmist traveling through South Dakota a week ago. It looked very nice. We tend to like a little bolder, as represented by the Lapis or the Midnight Illusion. I don't think you can go wrong with either...I think you have to decide between the bold or the more subtle.

I personally love the Lapis color scheme. That would have been my choice had it been available in 2013.

Refreshing change from all the browns. Is there a grey/black interior available? That would be so sharp.

Glad to have you here with us.
I'm sure Entegra did some market research on that color before offering it.
Good luck with your choice and Happy Trails!!!

While the Lapis is sharp looking, my concern would be the white on the nose. How hard is it to keep clean looking? Perhaps some of you with the Midnight Illusion can chime in and offer some pros and cons of having a white color on the front.

Been there with the Midnight Illusion. I actually think the black and dark colors show dirt and grime worse on the front. And bugs...well, nothing looks very good. That said, I was disappointed at what the Sunlit Cornerstone pictures I got after driving through a gravel parking lot. The white lower in the rear is problematic. JMHO
