Default PTS 4.0RS in Mexico Blue

After a 6 month wait since I sold my 3.8, I picked up the 4.0 earlier today. First frost in the UK overnight, so not exactly ideal conditions, but I didn't care!

The colour scheme is Mexico Blue with black highlights for the front drive planes, wing mirrors, wheels and side plates for the rear wing. I like the simplicity of the lines without the decals.

Interior is grey alcantara and leather with black roll cage, red trimmed carpets and harnesses both sides - the car will see the track!


























Cheers

WOW WOW WOW!

I am very partial to my 3.8 Zanzibar w/White gold, but this as a 4.0 plus the Mexico plus the black on the mirrors and other accents, plus, plus, plus, really makes me think!

Looks great. Congrats! Just curious -- how did you eliminate the GT silver trim on the front bumper (including the flicks) and the red trim under the mirrors? Was that done at the factory, or after the fact?
