I've been looking at them and for them for a while, but I have not yet seen all colours in person, eyeball to eyeball.

I have seen:

Claret & Black code 265, my first SVX
Liquid Silver, black roof with lower grey trim, code 215, I have a couple of them [JDM]
Dark Gray Metallic, 222, a big favourite.
Ebony, 235, seen a few, have one.
Liquid Silver & Black, 249, have a couple.
Pearl White & Black, 267, I want one.
Barcelona Red with Black Roof, 372, UK colour. Great combination.
Light Silver Metallic, code 406, looks nice, all over colour.
Dark Teal, code 269, not as nice in the metal as I expected.
Emerald Pearl, code 434, ditto.
Polo Green Pearl, code 517. Didn't think I'd like it, but lovely, great interior.
Bright Yellow, code 518. Eyecatching, hard to miss.
Bright [or Brilliant] Red, code 559. Suits the car, tends to get UV fade.

That leaves a few I have not seen in the metal.

They are:

Red Mica/Ruby Mica & Black, code 235, a big favourite.
Laguna Blue, code 389, love to see one for real.
Bordeaux Pearl, code 487.

To me, all the colours are pretty good, only a couple I'm iffy about. I've bolded the ones I like the most.
