I agree. Beam blue looks beautiful with either hyper silver alloys, or matte grey/carbon black alloys.

anshu22, 'beam blue' looks great @ night i.e in artificial lights, i had almost liked this seeing this car @ night. reminds me of some blue shade seen on mercedes c200. But in day time it didn't impress much.

My colleague has a beam blue Baleno and he had a big dent on his front right door as well as the rear left door due to well Bangy bus traffic, he got the car done up and the doors repainted and it cost him less than 5k for this and he got his car back in 3 days. Well so don't worry about the blue color go for it if you feel so

na i am not worried about the cost of paint in case i have to get some part repainted. just that the baleno website only shows the hood of the car in the color option. i want to see real live pics of the whole body in beam blue to see how it looks. i already have a silky silver alto. dont want that in my baleno too

Are you sure that your alto is silky silver? i have seen the alto in some other shade of silver but never in the silky silver shade. I was told by a maruti authorised dealer that silky silver shade is available in the baleno, esteem, swift and the zen only.

BTW, i feel pearl silver really looks cool on the baleno.

I would prefer Thunder Black with Chrome alloys and broad tubeless.
In any other colour,the black inner shade of the headlight unit r more visible which take away the glamour of the machine.
Beware --BLACK is difficult to maintain.

The thumb rule for colour selection is- "Go by your heart,not by other's words"
