That's mine again. I prefer the evoque with a vivid colour, can be white. I'm not very fond of black. So any choice you make will do. I picked red so it stands out a bit more, since most cars are white, black or gray.
I also like contrasting roofs ...

I'm a fan of red and although the spec of my car keeps changing and will until they force to make a decision Red is staying.
Have you seen this thread? There are a number of red cars shown http://babyrr.com/forum/Thread-Collection-of-Evoque-Colours-and-styles

I do hear many stories of red cars paintwork fading with the weather but I do have to say a red with black roof would look awesome
That's only on solid red if the cars paint work has had a tuf life

Your reaction to the red Evoque was so strong that you have to have it IMO. If you don't you'll always regret it when you see one. I think the white roof is more feminine than the black one with the firenze.
Like you, my heart always skips a beat when I see an Evoque. My husband fears a bit for my current car when i see an Evoque while driving as I can't keep my eyes of the Evoque passing by.

Whilst there's fewer reds than greys there's certainly too many whites, it seems the dealers were pushing white because when I ordered it was the colour they suggested, although I liked the red it was a bit too daring for me and I was unsure whether I'd continue to like it. I have an Orkney grey and don't have any regrets but because its the poverty model I might have some black wrap applied to the mirrors and get the grill painted black.

Mine is red and looking just fabulous in the summer sunshine. There's quite a high level of metallic dosing and it really sparkles. Easy to keep clean, I changed at the last minute from silver and am very pleased I did. I'd have the same colour in a heartbeat.

I'd have had the red as a second choice too - Firenze is like Mauritius blue - on a cloudy, overcast day its kind of dull - and when the sun comes out it transforms itself. For Mauritius blue you see flecks of blue and purple - looks amazing.

My original choice was Fuji.. then I saw a Firenze in person at the dealer & immediately changed my mind (buying it on the spot - it's the one I now own).
Don't get me wrong, I love the RRE in Fuji White (my other car is an Alpine White BMW 6 series), but there was something about an Evoque in red that made up my mind instantly. The fact there are not many red SUVs in general also helped & I think is one of the reasons it makes it stand out.
Like others have said, ALL the colors look great; it just comes down to a matter of personal taste. Regardless of which one you choose, rest assured your new Evoque will look AMAZING!
Good luck & be sure to post pictures once you get it.

I must say - I like every colour. Never had such a difficult but enjoyable decision to make!
Thanks everyone.

Waiting for delivery always causes this dilemma.
I would say, for what it's worth, consider, Fuji with contrast Black roof, Firenze with contrast Black Roof and my personal favourite, Orkney Grey with contrast Black roof. I don't think any of these will disappoint you.
