Hi Guys,
My first post to the Nib. I've been on the shaving forum for a year now and been poking around the Nib the last few days. I'm looking to purchase my first fountain pen. I'm thinking about the Parker IM.

I am very much open to suggestion on my first fountain pen. Looking to keep it around $40 and something along the lines of the Parker IM in aesthetics. I'd like the pen to have clean lines black, sliver, or dark grey or a combination. some grip lines like the IM to give a little character would be a plus.
Also I am aware that this is a cartidge pen, I'm open to trying a piston pen and in that case would like a recommendation for a nice black ink that wont break the bank. Thanks guys! I really appreciate any guidance you can give me.
I'm thinking about purchasing this Rhodia notebook as well if anyone has any experience with it:
