In July of 2007, we got a Santa Fe Limited AWD with the deep water blue as the exterior and the taupe interior. Originally, we wanted the slate blue, but they couldn't find one with it in a 400 mile radius at the time. So, we decided on the deep water blue and had them drive about 150 miles to Pennsylvania to pick up the car. We love it, except when there are scratches, you can definitely see them. Also, in dark conditions, the color looks black, but in the sun, it looks sparkling blue.

Platinum Sage and I love it! Initially I wanted Steel Gray but they didn't have the colour. My husband actually preferred the Platinum Sage but I was concerned that it was too green.
 
However, the colour has really grown on me. It is a relatively special and unique colour too.
 
Pretty easy to maintain since it is a metallic paint. Haven't had any problems yet!

I have an 2007 limited awd touring in Beige exterior and beige interior. I'm a bit concerned about keeping the light beige interior clean. The beige carpets already shows dark patches from dirty shoes. I've order some weathertech mats (my 4th set) to keep everything manageable. The exterior beige is good with hiding dirt and so is silver. Everything else seems to show dirt right away.

The Weathertech floorliners have done an excellent job keeping my carpet clean and dirt free. I have the gray interior in my '07 limited and after 14 months of use they still look brand new.

My wife has the Natural Khaki also, she loves it & nice in 08 that the carpets are black so it does not show the dirt! Have seen other Khaki from other Manufactures but does not compare to the 08 colour & we are not lovers of the colour Green.

Just got a limited in slate blue. My 2004 was the equivalent of the deepwater blue. I didn't like that because 90% of the time it looked black, not blue. Every tiny scratch showed up white as well and it showed dirt like crazy. Despite all that I probably would have gotten the deepwater blue if they had had any on the lot-LOL. The slate blue is growing on me every day. The amount of metalic shimmer is really pretty.
